Nice idea but I noticed on your website that the tree only accommodates up to a 8" wheel. Is there another option for this, since even our stock wheels will not fit on it, or is the information on your website incorrect? I did notice the wheeled version fits wider wheels. Does it mirror the stand-alone version and is just misquoted?

The FK Wheel tree with Wheels is no longer available. The info on the site is based on FKs design of the product. That being said personally I've put larger than 8 inch wheel/tire combos on the tree.

How about two 9.5" and two 10.5" wheels?

I have something like this. In german they are sold everywhere. Even at the German grocery stores! lol It is called a: Reifenbaum or Reifen baum = "tire tree" in English.

I have use it for my 135i OE summer wheels. 8.5inch wheels fit just fine. I do stack my wheels: 7.5/8.5/7.5/8.5 I think I did try to stack the two rear wheels on top of each other... the sidewalls just barely touch. So 8.5's is about limit. But it would not be that hard to modify one of these tire trees.

I really like using one of these tire trees to store my wheels.

I'm in the process of bringing in some which will accommodate nice wide wheels (should fit up to a 11.5 inch wide wheel). I'll let everyone know when the bigger ones arrive.

MadMan77 · 10-22-2012, 02:19 PM

Excellent! That is good to know.

Subscribed for bigger, better wheel tree...

Cheers,

We have the new FK Wheel Trees for wider wheels slated to be ready for sale at the end of November. Once I get a few in I'll toss a set of rather wide wheels on them to confirm the manufactures claim and report back.

Until then I'll just leave this LINK here to remind everyone they are coming. Also to help keep everyone informed the "On Order ETA" in green on the product page will update if anything changes.

Have you had a chance to confirm their claims of fitting up to 11.5" wheels?

They are landing in the next week. We will test fit wheels and get some photos for everyone.

MadMan77 · 12-10-2012, 03:14 PM

Have you guys had a moment to check this stand out?

ECSTuning · 12-10-2012, 03:24 PM

Yes we have! The wheels in the below photo are some of our spares for the E90 M3, they are 20x10.5 rears, and the fronts are 20x9, they are the widest wheels with tires we have not in use on one of our cars currently. They fit with no problems.

MadMan77 · 12-11-2012, 05:33 AM

Sweet! Looks like I will be ordering one when I get home from work tonight.
