Going for an M4 CS look on my M2
I was going for a M4 CS look. I wanted to do the 20" rears and 19" fronts as per the CS and keep the standard CS tyre sizes. I have Eibach lowering springs on standard dampers Front Wheels are 19" x 9.5" ET45 with a 20mm spacer, bringing the ET down to 25. Tyres are 265 x 35 R19's Michelin Pilot Super Sports Rear Wheels are 20" x 10" ET45 with a 10mm spacer bringing the ET down to 35. Tyres are 285 x 30 R20's Michelin Pilot Super Sports I've had two of us in the car, with a boot full of heavy stuff and no rubbing to speak of. Front wheels turn lock to lock without touching. The wheels aren't genuine as I thought 5k for a new set or even 2.5k for a second hand set, was a bit over the top. So yes, they are fakes, but good quality ones and I think they look the part. Hope you like it as much as me. Sean.. |

You could have purchased new OEM with tyres for £2500-2600 from many dealers discounting heavy on the M3/M4 spec 763M.
I’m guessing by the time you bought fakes, tyres and spacers / extended bolts you were likely around 2k anyway ? I’m guessing the fakes are not too light ? They do look good though. |

The fakes are TUV approved and are similar in weight to the standard wheels. I used the original rear tyres on the front and purchased two new rears.
The wheels were 550, tyres 450, spacers and bolts 200, so all in about £1,200. |

Look really good, couldn't have said they were fakes from the pics. Guessing these are circmn supplied? How did you get the tyres for £450? I'll have a set at that price, PM me if you like!
Car looks great, size of wheels and style suit the M2 really well. |

Wouldn’t mind knowing the source of tyres at that price myself.
