What offset did you guys run in the rear? I got a 20x10 with a 40MM offset and I did a test fit and looks like Im gonna have to send this back again. They are sticky out past the fender. Im gonna get a tire one tomorrow and do another test fit before I go powder coat them. If you have pics please post up.

hey those will fit, when you get a tire on it and put it on the ground it ll tuck in. If you had a lower off set youd have a problem

I'm running 20x10 on the rear and it was installed today. The offset is +35. I just had to down size the tires from 275x35 R20 to 265x35 R20. No rubbing at all.

20x10? Wow, those things will make your M follow every road inconsistency! It will look good though.

Well I dont know how you guys do it unless you got mutipeice wheels. I dont see it happening with cast wheels. Im gonna get something else with a 45MM offset.

They may be relying on the profile of the tire being narrower nearer the tread (away from the hub that is). Plus, the motion of the wheel is not straight up and down - the top of the tire "tips in" when moving up, so it may clear the fender edge.

An alternative is to roll the fender to give the tire some room.

Ummm ... please be careful and check the fitment (not saying that you should not do it - just check it carefully at a friendly tire dealership who will mount and check wheels)!

With a 10" width, that 45mm offset may contact suspension components since the wheel will sit further "in" than a 40mm offset wheel. But, since I have not tried this myself, all I can say is "check it out carefully", since the stock 2006+ M wheels (which are narrower than 10" wide!) have 47 and 50mm offsets, by the way.
