M2 wheels on G42

Hey guys, I slapped on some G87 fronts on the rear of the car. I am lowered, I feel like if ran on a smaller tire. Would look a lot better, currently it is a 275/35/19.

At your current state, do you rub on bumps?

I threw it on to see how it would fit, I think if I were to run this, I would run a smaller tire, since the poke is mainly on the tire and not the rim. But it seems to clear and with some room to spare.

Wow, didn’t realize how big the M2 tires were compared to the M240. I would want to run shorter tires simply because you probably have a higher risk or wheel or tire damage and the ride will suffer.

265/35/19 is pretty common to run on a 19x9.5 on these cars without much poke.

my guess is the offset on the wheel might be an issue.

You might need to go 245/40..
