Swapped out the OEW rears to 295/30/20

I like the tad more beef back there. Same brand unfortunately Yokohama doesn't make a Star rated 295/30/20 V107s. So I got the non Star rated V107 295/30/20

With only 0.4" wider tread, there's not going to be any noticeable difference.

No difference in driving. Strictly visual.

Well, yes if pushing the car to the limit. But since 99.9999999% of M2 owners will never get even close, then nope!

Already did...no issues. BTW, I also feel I gained some off the line traction. The taller sidewall helps in this.

While you gained a touch of weight, the wider footprint aka contact patch will help with traction from launch/acceleration.

Looks great! Any rubbing/fitment issues when turning fully locked or going fast over dips in the road?

I had some rubbing on full lock backing up, I dremeled some room out on the vent fins that were rubbing and it really minimized it.

Do you think 12mm spacers would've resolved the rubbing issues?
