19x9 Squared Fitment
Hey all, I have a fitment question for my 1M front-end conversion. I want to run AG M359 19x9 squared. Front obviously won't be a problem with the wide fenders. The rear will be my only issue.
The wheels are 35 ET which is to aggressive for the 135i rear. Only solution I can think of is to switch to the E9X rear hubs which would give me an extra 10mm essentially turning the rear in an 45 ET setup. (I think) Will this work or should I explore my other option of: VMR V703 18x9.5 ET33 VMR V703 18x9.5 ET45 Thanks in advance.

It could work, if you're not worried about performance. I'm running 18x10 et40 out back on hankook tires 245s with 1.9 degrees of camber.

Depend on tire size and suspension set up you have. I m on dinan springs with dinan koni and dinan camber plates. My wheels are 18x9 45mm all around. Front fenders heavily rolled with 10mm spacers and 255 tires I would rub on fenders even with -1.8 camber. So i got custom 7mm and it's all good up front, but tires are very close to struts. But since you have 1m front end, you would have lot of space.
Now the rear also have 255 tires with 1.9 camber I have no rubbing, but it will rub even if I put a 3mm spacer at the back. One note, my tires are 255/35/18 Bridgestone re050 rft which it's more like a 245 wide tires from my experience. |

I don't think you'll have to sacrifice too much out back. Do the rear hub mod and it'll fit if you roll the guards really well and stick to something like 255/30 square. I have a 19x9et48 rear wheel and MPSS 265/30 mounted. Rubs over bad dips on one side, still working that out, but I think I have a sagging spring or blown damper, which would explain it.
Unless you're planning big boost, you really don't need larger than a 255/265 tire on the 1er IMO. Another note: Why not get a pair of 19x9 OE ZCP wheels for the front, and the 19x9 rear AG M359 for the back? Then if you decide to get rear quarter work done, get a pair of OE ZCPs for the back. The Avant Gardes are pretty heavy.
