The front and rear offsets are 40, I believe since the ET is 40. I may look into spacers if that offset doesn't look right (have a feeling it will not). Though that's the offset I was sent since the company never called me back grrr.

MAD PROPS on your M!! I bought my 2007 M35x in Pearl and I am looking to do something exactly like you did, I unfortunately know ZERO about what most of the details on the specs you mention. I live in ILL and the streets out here are horrible so I am shopping for some summer wheels and would switch back to my stock in the winter. I also have the rear spoiler on my M35x like you do. I want the sporty look with that aggressive look you have going on in your car. Can you please recommend what I should go with in the Front tire and Rear tire please size etc...? I read through most of your threads and feel I can trust you. Also how much am I looking to spend on something like what you did with wheels and tires? Again I am super impressed with your car!! I was thinking of getting some 19's because of my fear of the streets out in the area I live. Looking forward to your recommendations. Take care

Sick looking ride my friend. I wish I liked my M45 that much to invest that kind of money in it. Mine has giving me quite a bit of trouble since ownership, so I really have no will anymore to modify it. For now on, the M will only get what it requires and that's it. I love the wheels, tires, and drop combo! It fits the car just perfect in my opinion.To the others that placed wheels on their M that we didn't too much care for....well, even though they don't all want to admit it, they know in their mind that they made the wrong decision or trusted someone else to make the decision, but to only find out that they really didn't know anymore than you did.Sometimes, online purchases can really go south!Once again, I really envy your M's new look!

Thanks so much I really appreciate the mad props. I take it you're rolling on 18's right now. With horrible streets I would not go higher than 19's. Furthermore 19's as demonstarated by "KENAZ" can get you all the sport you ever thought bout.

The normal size for 19's is 245/40/19 tires. I would go with 255/40/19's for a little more cushion. That means you need a attractive sidewall. I personally like a more round looking sidewall to give it that sport.

Since your streets are bad get a really strong quality rim. I would go with a 19 inch 9 inch wide wheel all the way around. No more than that. I would do a +40mm offset all the way around. You don't want to go staggered with a al wheel drive. Keep her even.

So look for a tire that looks good and has good ride quality to deal with those bad potholes and such.

Thanks again for the compliments.

MT45, thanks so much for the kind words. Best of luck in picking your tire. If price is not a concern, then go with the PS2's. Those things are hecka fun!

The Goodyear F1 G's are great as well. Can't go wrong with those. The Goodyear F1 Asymmetrical is a fine choice too. To tell you the truth, you're going to be happy with either one of the aforementioned.

Now stop messin' around and go order those puppies.

Do a search under my name to find more pictures(sorry you'll have to do the work). They stick out about a 1/4 of a inch in the rear and stick in about a 1/4 of a inch in the front.

Good luck!
