18" Matte Black MORR FS77

High offset wheels are so hard to find!

If anyone is looking for a Y-Mesh design, MORR's offers 2's fitment. (more or less)

Design comparable to VMR 703's, HRE FF01, AG M310's, and Forgestar F14's,
My pick: The New flow-formed series by MORR's, FS77.

I went with 18's and used my stock tires.

F 18X8 et 45
R 18X9 et 45

The rear is slightly aggressive, I think the recommended offset for rears for 9's are et 50, but this wheel is not offered at that offset.
Not sure if I'd be able to lower without rubbing. I wasn't planning on lowering the F22 if at all possible, but I think the wheel gap now really needs it.

It's not that bad. I'm going to be running 18x8.5 ET 38 square soon, which has the same poke in the rear as yours (I think .3 mm more, but basically the same). You might want to take a trip to West End Alignment in Gardena and put a little camber in the back so you don't rub (in case you want to drop the car a little).

Ahh, thanks for the tip. What wheels are you going with? And do you plan on dropping the car?

I bought Apex ARC-8's in Hyper Black from their 2015 group buy (got 175 off plus free shipping). They make 2 series fitments. ET 38 is aggressive, but I'm going to run 255/35 Diezzas all around, so it's necessary (at least in the front). I'm not planning on getting lowering springs right now, but I definitely might consider it in the future.

A drop and push out the exhaust tips and your ride will be perfect. Didn't know MORR made 18" wheels, love them!

Looks good

The rears should be fine though, there are lots running 9.5 et45 and not rubbing on H&R springs. The only one that rubbed a bit was running PSS, which run wide, but was able to fix it by rolling his fenders

I am running stock PSS!

And the new BMW's come with rolled fenders now, is my understanding.. Including our F22s

They were 255s not stock 245s

You can always roll them fenders even more, all though the f22 is much better than the old e82
