You should be pretty close to maxed with those wheels and spacers. Same size wheels and tires as I have, only my offests are about 10 more on each wheel, 27 front, 34 rear. Pretty sure I have like 1mm before I start rubbing

Warm weather is here and touge.ca has some dates in TMP Cayuga, I hope to see some fellow Canadians come for a lapping session. Can't wait to put mine in the track.

Side note JB4 stage 2 coming soon

got around to doing the black grills on mine. little tricky to get the bottom tabs, but I managed it. Pro tip was not putting in the first new grill and reaching though the hole to help remove the second old one.

Just wondering has anyone put wider tires on the factory 19'' 225M wheels?? If so, what is the widest tire you can throw on without it being stupid looking and obviously without rubbing.. Keeping in mind I plan to lower the truck with H&R Springs and will probably have spacers of either 5mm/10mm or 10mm/15mm (F/R)

Thanks for your help

8.5 225 235-245 255
9.0 235 245-255 265
9.5 245 255-265 275

Hope this helps.

We should start a sticky for interchangeable parts with E9x and E8x. What do you think?

You may want to consider 3M'ing the side fender and rockers instead of mud flaps. It'll give a cleaner look. I did this for my wife's 328XiT and M3 vert.

wantm135i, what rims are these? Also, do you have a link to your suspension kit? Definitely loving it.

EDIT - found the rims, they're just M Sport "M double spoke 225" for some reason I didn't recognize. Too many choices...
