Hello all!

Took delivery of my m240i today and couldn't be happier! This is my first BMW and am very impressed by the build quality.

Power wise the car is great but the wheel wells do look a bit empty. Has anyone tried spacers yet?

Prev cars: 21 Subaru STI, 16 Audi S3, 13 Subaru WRX

Congrats! Beautiful car. Which tires do you have A/S, or performance?

Thanks! They are A/S Pirelli. I will most likely replace with Michelin PS4S or AS4 next.

My car will also have the A/S with the smaller rear wheels, I've been trying to find a car with same 792 wheels in the smaller size to get an idea of how they'd look. It doesn't look bad, but I agree they should be a bit wider and looks like the car could sit a bit lower. Your car looks great, enjoy!

Thanks! I love the wheels and they will allow for a meaty tire look once I upgrade tires. Tires and spacers will def transform the look (drop optional). You won't be disappointed!

Brilliant car!!! I hope have many years of fun with it.

Good choice OP. BMWs are awesome. I have bought 7 BMWs so far.

Don't get to drive it as much as I would like to but man this thing brings me so much happiness and joy! Was admiring the engine cover carbon accents.
