G42 M240i gets 763 Gold M performance wheels from 8 series

Denver Coutu · 05-11-2022, 06:25 PM

Alright quick story time.

For those of you who don't know, i am a client advisor at a BMW dealership in Toronto. We had these gold 763 M performance wheels on display for a little while and i had this thought that they would look fantastic on my M240i. I spoke with my bosses and convinced them of the idea and boom! My car looks amazing now!

This is OEM + and i love it. Part #36112459552

The front was 225/35R19 and the rear was 255/30R19

Now it is 245/35R20 in the front and the rear is 275/30R20.

Big step up in grip and baller status lol.

I researched the dimensions and offset before i test fitted and was confident they would fit. While on the hoist they cleared everything, after a test drive and tight parking lot turns, no rubbing!

Now i know the 763 wheels are from the M3CS/M4CS/M2CS with 5X120 and the G42 is 5x112, but these 763 are 5x112 because they are meant to go on a M850i.

Overall i love them and they look so good! Happy it all worked out.

What do you think?

Well, crap... that looks good. Not sure it would be right on a BGM but still....

Brooklyn Grey Metallic. I love a Bronze/Gold wheel.

Thundernight · 05-11-2022, 07:28 PM

Wow!! That looks incredible! I was actually planning on getting a second set of wheels for track/winter use. These would be perfect on my thundernight metallic m240.

Are they really $5K a set though??
BMW Part #: 36112459552 correct?

gp_solo2 · 05-11-2022, 09:35 PM

Wow they look good! Would be so nice on Thundernight Metallic but dam these rotors look small now on 20´s

Not sure what the part number is for the set. In Canada they are $6500

What do you think?

They look great, especially with the wrap!! What is the offset on these bad boys?

Most of the online appear to be a staggered set up 19" front and 20" rears. But these look mega in 20" all around!!

G42Enjoyer · 05-12-2022, 06:51 AM

Great idea. Those work so much better with the wrap.

I like the new look.

Al Bundy's Dodge · 05-12-2022, 08:24 AM

Looks great! Love the 763Ms…black or gold. They make almost any car look better imo.

What do you think?

Also, not to sound dumb or anything but if I have the square 225 setup, is there anything special I need to do to switch to a staggered setup (say 225 in the front 255 in the rear)? I'm just worried about the trans for some reason I have it in my head that it needs to be reprogrammed for a staggered setup. I didn't order the high performance tire package because I didn't think I needed it but I want to run a staggered setup for the summer on a different set of rims wrapped in pilot sport 4s's.

I am not a mechanic so i am not 100% sure i have right in this answer, but from what I understand you just need to make sure the overall diameter stays the same or as close to. There are wheel calculators online to help.

Maybe a mechanic would know about reprogramming more then me.

225/35R19 in the front and 255/30R19 in the back are very close at 25.2"(front) and 25"(back)

It appears the chassis is not set up for a square set up, not to say you couldn't try to run one but remember it is a rear bias, X-drive configuration hence none of the standard wheel packages are staggered, they're all rear bias, that's how the chassis, drive, trans, traction control, abs, etc are all configured from the factory.
