M2 wheels on the M240I

Can we fit the stock wheels on the new M2 on the our car? Or would the offset and the size cause rubbing issues?

The G series M2, M3 and M4 offset for the rears is too low for G42, so being 10.5” wide they poke out a lot and will definitely rub. But, you can run a square set of all fronts 9.5”, with a 255/40 front - 265/35 rear tires. Rears will be really flush as the offset difference would be like running a 20mm spacer.

Are you on stock suspension? I do wanna lower the car on springs but looks like it might rub with 9.5 265/35

Yes, I'm on stock suspension. And I agree that if you are going to lower the car, 265s will probably rub. With the +20 offset M wheels, it's technically like running a 7mm spacer up front, and a 20mm spacer at rear (G42 offsets 27 front, 40 rear). When I did this test fit, I could see that the 9.5" fronts would clear the fenders if mounted at the rear with the 265s, but would be very flush, and definitely rub if lowered.
You could run 255/40 square, (just not with a runflat tire) but it's possible you could still have rubbing issues at the rear if lowered.

Do you have any pics from the side so we can see how much they poke out?

I would love to try and run a square setup with the 9.5 Fronts of these 930M's or the M3/M4 826M's.

If I don’t plan on lowering the car running the 265/35 square set up all 9.5”. Would I have any issue with fittment or rubbing?
Thinking of running 826M wheels

It would depend on the offset.
At +25 offset you'll definitely be OK.
Lower offset that that is uncharted territory.

Did you keep the 930m wheels on your m240? If so, can you tell me how you like driving the car with a square 9.5 setup vs the stock staggered setup? I really want to get the 826m fronts for all 4 of my wheels, but I don't want to purchase without some feedback from someone who has driven with the 9.5 et 20 wheels. Thank you
