Another fitment question F32 440i
I promise I looked, I haven’t seen this question asked, I apologize if it has.
2019 440i xDrive Msport on 400m’s 18” square, bone stock. I want to put Apex ARC-8’s wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport all seasons on it. I plan to keep the car a long time, it only gets driven a few thousand miles a year, and I like to keep things as close to stock as possible. My question is what width and offset should the wheels be, keeping with a square setup and stock tire size? |

imo, 225's are narrow for B58 power. i'd increase to a wider square or staggered setup to make the upgrade worthwhile. |

i'm assuming you want square?
option1, 235/45/18 square, conservative increase and what i'd do @ the very minimum. link below shows Solidjake with 235/45/18 on 18x8.5 ET35 apex sm-10 https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...35&postcount=6 option2, 255/40/18 square. link below has Polo08816 with 255/40/18 on 18x8.5 ET38 Apex Arc-8. if you get ET35 it will be 3mm more flush than ET38. either offset is fine, though. https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...83&postcount=4 option3, 255/40/18 square on 18x9.5 ET35, modestly aggressive. compared to 8.5", 9.5" is more concave, which i prefer. link has Tato with 255/40/18 on 18x9.5 ET35 Apex VS-5RS https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...&postcount=460 maybe for you i'd do option2 is safest, decent increase but not too crazy. i prefer deeper concavity so i would do option3, personally. |
