OP great pics, thanks for sharing. Just some questions for you. Any particular reason you didn't go with 21 inch size wheels? On the f10 20" just seems a tad small for the size of the car. Also what did you use for suspension to lower the car? Coilovers? Springs? I wasn't aware there were available. Thank you.

You are correct. 21" is the ideal size.
Unfortunately HRE doesn't have FlowForm wheels in 21" and I don't want to promote 21" since the tires are usually hard to find and expensive.
The car is lowered on some spring that I made it to fit just for the meantime until KW coilover is released.

I don't think it is out yet since the engine is fairly new. Let me check on it and get back to you.

That's just a listing that they selling KW.
I also sell KW.
And I asked them already and they said not available yet.
I saw KW Europe has a lowered G30 on their booth at some show.
So I guess it will be ready soon.

Let me know when they are available and what setup you went with when they arrive, this will probably be my first mod for the car.

I don't get why they post on the g30 section marketplace when they aren't even available.....

The car is more responsive now.

Ohh this is very nice OP. Are there any nice 21" wheels that you know don't cost and arm and a leg?

Unfortunately, 21" won't be cheap in overall.
First main cost will be the tires. Since 21" are not popular, the tire cost are higher.
Second will be the wheel options. All of these wheel manufacturer only made Flowform Forged in 18", 19", 20". Some do 21", but no application for the new BMW bolt pattern yet.
Why don't you PM me what's your budget and I'll see what I can find for you.
You can't be too picky on the design though.

The wheels look good. I have some 20x9 / 20x10.5 getting powder coated right now and I was planning on order 255 for the front and 285 in the rear. Do you think I'll have any issues with any rubbing or anything else at 255? Does the 285 fit well?

They are bosses vfs10. I don't know the offsets but I picked them up directly from their manufacturing team here in Miami so I can only assume they have me the right offsets knowing I was going 285

You should be able to do 255 in the front.
