18" or 19" M5 Reps and H+R Sports.......

Anyone running 19x8.5 et38 and 19x9.5 et40 M5 reps with H+R sport springs ?

Any rubbing issues with the offset and 235 / 265 tires ?

I don't want to run spacers, so I want to see how the clearance is with this set up before going this route.

Post pics of this package, if you know of any.

If anyone is running 18x8 and 18x9 M5 reps, with H+R sports, I'd love to see photos of them as well.

Thanks,

kj

it might be hard finding people with this set up since these cars are still somewhat new.

then again, every car is also different from one another in my experience, so one car might need it and another car with similar specs might not need it.

let me know if you decide to get the m6 wheels or h&r springs and I can help you get set up with that.

Bimmer,
I got the grilles off ebay.
These are only $65 and are not true CF, but look Insanely Real.

I have an outfitter that is making full wrapped CF grilles, but won't have them until March sometime.

Just do a search for e90 Carbon Fiber on ebay.

Cheers.

You wont rub at all in the rear. You can safely use a 10mm spacer with that rear wheel/tire set up and still not rub. If you read around on the boards, you will see that this is the first time BMW has ever made such a considerably larger rear wheel well on any of the 3 series sedan chassis.
