Do you know what your ET (offset) is? I have 22x11s on my rears with 295's and will move to a 305 when I replace them so it will not have any of the stretched look. My front are 22x9 ET30 and could have been ET25 in my opinion. I like them flush with NO poke. It would probably look perfect if I just lowered it.

What brand of wheels you got on your car? Can you post a side view?

Thanks for your reply. Would you be able to post a close up picture top down on the rears to show how much the tire is sticking out?

I’ll try to get a pic for you tomorrow. It doesn’t stick out at all though. It’s actually almost flush.

Here are some pics of the rear wheel. No poke at all, I could use a 15mm spacer and I could go a little lower but it’s my daily so I’d rather not worry about rubbing or anything.

To sit flush with the front fender, 9.5" et 24 or 25. That'll leave you with 2 or 3mm of room from the knuckle.

The rear, 9.5 et 28 is pretty much flush. Run a square 275 /35/20 and you'll also fill up your fenders. Your xcase will also thank you.

Thanks for posting the pics!

So you have 285/30/20 with 12mm spacers in the rear! I wonder why my set up look closer to the vender than yours with 12mm spacers and 275/30/20. Unless I'm imagining mine look closer to the vender...

Let me know your thoughts as I would love to go littler wider on the rear but without pushing the tires outside the vender area.

That is very close to what I want to run as my winter set. Thanks for the confirmation.

That Black on black on black it beautiful. Crazy how the angle of that pic makes those rims blend into the tires. They look like 19". Of course because that's an M8 I'm fairly certain 19" wont fit.

Love the murdered look when someone else owns it.

Sorry for the late response. I'm not sure of the offset. I bought them and they poked too much so the wheel shop modified them.

Here is the winter set up. I went with 20x9 up front with a 255/40R20 and a 20x10.5 in the rear with a 295/35R20 tire. Offset is +27 in the front and +45 in the rear. No poke and no rub.

Your summer setup looks great! What’s the offset on your rear 22x11?
I’m assuming you want to move from a 295/25/22 to 305/25/22?
Does this current setup poke or would you say it’s flush with the stock height?
