M340i 791m wheel/tire
Hi all,
Currently i have 19x8 791M with 225/40/19. I've been reading that it might not be the best setup for the m340i. I have an interest in the 795M FERRIC GREY(which tire/size would be best?), however my primary question is how much are my 791M's worth? They have 2000 miles on them and the michelin RFT.

As for the 795m wheels (I'm also wanting to get a set for summer), I believe they only come in 20 x 8 and 20 x 8.5, same width and offsets as the 791m wheels. I think the standard tire size would be 225/35 and 255/30. I'm sure you could go a tiny bit wider on tire size. |

Yeah, thats a better idea. or i can just get the tires for the summer and slap em on these wheels. However i do really like the 795m wheels as well. Maybe another wheel brand is the way to go for the summer, as the price on those is pretty steep. |

The 795m wheels are a bit expensive, but I believe they're forged, so they should be light. As well, I like the brushed and matte combination on the spokes. Their only drawback is the offsets, so they would sit the same as the current wheels. I'd likely get spacers, if I got them. Otherwise, get aftermarket wheels with better offsets. |

From what I've read on here, from people who have installed spacers, those seem to be the correct sizes. I would put them on - 15mm in the front and 13mm in rear - see how they look. I think it'll look great.

I also have the 8" 791 m with puny 225's
I am doing a test fit on tue with 2 new - 8.5" 791 for the rear with 265 ps4s's and 245 on the stock front rims. This "should" work (with spacers needed possibly) I could probably get 4 cheap aftermarket rims for the cost of the 2 rears but like keeping the stock look but beefier and no real options avail yet...... Stay tuned........

I didn't mean in terms of comfort (I find the 19s perfectly stiff), but tire / wheel damage. hitting a pothole with 19s on RFT sounds terrible. have you had any tire issues in your cars? ever run tires with this little sidewall before?
PS the spacers look great |

I ordered two 19x8.5 791M rear wheels today, and plan to put on 255/35/19 Pirelli Cinturatos to match the ones in the front, for a staggered setup. |

Decided to go with Michelin A/S 3+ instead of just changing the rear tires.

Zero issues with the 265/35's in the rear.
