Stock M (3/4/5/6) wheels wider than my 437m?

I am looking to take steps to increase traction in my f80 with 437m wheels, and i think wider wheels will help me with traction but i do not like to venture far from the OEM look, i have been researching wheels such as m433s something OEM from bmw that would still keep a stock M look but with more width and i have not had any luck finding wheels to accomplish this. Are there any M5 / M6 wheels that come at least 1 inch wider that could fit f80?

Ideally, i would love to have something 19x10 front 19x11 rear or 20x10 front 20x11 rear

Thanks,

The widest is 20x10.5 but "wrong" offsets.

20x11 is more like a old E70 E71 size, offsets around 4x.

You can get 295's on the stock wheels. I would wonder if 305's or whatever on 10.5" would rub.

Regarding traction, the tire is a more significant factor than the wheel itstelf. Why not get some stickier tires like R888's. I've seen people also run 305 wide tires.

i already have nitto nt01s 285 or 295 width on the rears, i still have major traction issues, so i am hoping for wider wheels to put even wider tires on

I’ve just switched out my 437 wheels for the M 763 wheels with cup sport 2 tyres. The tyres are slightly wider but the traction is massively improved over the Conti tyres the car came on

Can't imagine needing/wanting any wider than 305

Continental Extreme Contact Sport
Front 265/35x19
Rear 305/30 x 19
