Has anybody considered M8 Comp wheels for F90??

As title states. Has anybody considered getting OEM Competition wheels from M8 for their F90 M5??

I think it should look pretty awesome when the car is lowered and spacers.

Can anybody photoshop it??

The M8 has a track of 1627mm at the front and 1632mm at the rear.

The M5 is the same at the front but the rear is 1593mm, I don't think anyone has managed to fit 20mm spacers to the back of the M5 on stock wheels so I'm going to guess this won't really work.

The F10 and F13 were much the same, the rear wheels from an M6 were way too aggressive for an M5.

That makes sense, thanks for explaining it like that

Well that's a bummer

F13 wheels fit just fine on F10 M5.. no spacer needed in rear and small spacer up front, lowered on KW.. as for M8 wheels fitting an F90, we would need to look at the exact size and offset. Did BMW release this yet? I couldn't find it online anywhere.

True, but it is borderline and you can run 305s on an M6 but not an M5 with those wheels I believe. The M6 was 19mm and the M5 34mm so 15mm difference.

The F90 and F92 will be 20mm difference in offset assuming that the rear axle is the same and they are achieving the track difference by using a different offset. But the F92 might have a unique rear axle - we don't know yet. If it has an axle which is unique and is wider so the offset is closer then the wheels might fit just fine. But I think if the axle is the same I think that 20mm will be too much!

correct, yes i ran stock tire sizing on the F10 using F13 wheels with no issues an no rubbing fully loaded.

If F92 is 20mm apart from F90 fitment then yes the rear will not work unless adding additional negative camber, front may work but even that will be a tight fit with few millimeters of poke past the fenders.

I was searching all day yesterday, could not find specs for those M8 comp wheels anywhere yet.

Yeah I couldn't find anything either. Probably realoem.com will get updated first with the wheel specs and we'll know the info from there.

My question with the M8 wheels is if the 813M and 811M are both forged (and in turn what the weights are). The press release talks about the 813M being forged but no mention of the 811M construction at all.

863M wheels are cool too. https://www.bmw-m.com/en/topics/maga...nce-parts.html

What if you put the rear wheel off the m5 up on the front as well. Most people like to space out their wheels anyway. With the rear being 1 inch wider that would be like putting a 12 mm spacer up front so now the wheel is out a bit more and you could run a square set-up on tires and rotate them. You could still put a 12 mm spacer out back to help keep the stance more balanced as well.

Offset specs for both 813m and 811m found. Same offset as F90 wheels, so shouldn't be any issues with fitting them of F90

811M:
FFront Wheels: 9.5Jx20 ET28 (p/n 36118089564)
Rear Wheels: 10.5Jx20 ET28 (p/n 36118089565)

813M:
Front Wheels: 9.5Jx20 ET28 (p/n 36108089568)
Rear Wheels: 10.5Jx20 ET28 (p/n 36108089569)

Ohh that’s interesting so the M8 has a different rear axle from the F90. That’s quite handy knowledge actually!

I realize this is a several month old thread but just curious if anyone here is actually interested in these rims.

I am looking to buy an M8 competition and it has these rims but I like the blacked out ones way better and am trying to swap them out. I could work out a good deal compared to what they are selling for online.

Final update 275/35/20 works with no rubbing a little stretch on 10.5 rim but I can live with that .
