Has anyone fitted the Style 826M wheels 19x9.5 et20

Has anyone successfully fit these wheels on the m240i xdrive? Can et20 fit without spacers with a 255/35 or 265/35?

This guy did. Not my car so I can’t give first hand fitment details. He told me he has 265s square and that he machined the rear wheels a couple MM and had to camber them in to fit with his ride height.

Damn, I’d love this setup. However I wouldn’t know anyone or any shop that would be willing to machine the rears lol.

He felt that it probably would not need to be done if running 255s and/or weren’t lowered as much. I’ll find out this summer. Almost ordered them the other day, then changed my mind to do some other things first. Next time the money is burning a hole in my pocket, I will get them on the way.

I have HR springs which I don’t believe are as low as his car looks, and I am a machinist thus not too concerned about walking into it with the possibility of machining being required. The real work would be building the fixturing to hold the wheel absolutely true in the machine. With that done, it’s quite simple. But that sounds like an all day job so I am hopeful it doesn’t come to that.

So do you think if I get these wheels and run 255/35, I should be fine without modification?

I do plan on lowering my car, but if I get these wheels, id then get height adjustable springs so I don't run into issues.

You think a spacer would be required if lowered and on 255?

The offset is ET20 but all of APEX recommendations for this car are all between et25-et28.

I can’t really state a first hand opinion on it, since I’m just going off what someone else told me so far. I think spacers would only exacerbate the issue, as the offset is a bit overly aggressive as is. A 25-28 would be 5-8mm more inward, so a spacer is taking you further in the wrong direction.

Anyone know if the fender flares from the wheel and tire package help the rears fit without cutting down the rear wheel hubs? I’m not sure if the fender flairs come with the fenders rolled or pushed out. I would imagine if they were just stuck on, the rear clearance would still be an issue.

Can you share a picture of your stance and ride height? I plan on getting some h&r springs.

Anyone confirm whether this is possible for the M240i xdrive without modifications?

I have ordered 19x9.5 et20 (F) and 19x9.5 et22 (R) and I am aggressively lowered.

I plan on running 255/35 or 265/35 square.

From my understanding, my setup should work on the M240x with the 255/35 with a 90% chance of no rubbing.
