So I bought some 20" m performance wheels (aftermarket) 10 wide on the rear 8.5 wide on the front .
Recommended tire size was 245 35 20 front 275 30 20 rear Looked really weak and looked a mess So I changed the rears to 285 30 20 added rear spacers 15mm front spacers 10mm and wow did it make a big difference ! More aggressive stance and wheels sit flush with tyres instead of exposing too much of the rim of the tyre Big shout out to R1 tyres in blackburn for recommending the current setup and fitting new tyres plus spacers . Also thanks to tyre bay Nelson for fitment and tyres both place best in the business . |

As far as I know, M Performance wheels are exactly same width and offset with the factory 20" options.
That is 8x20 ET30 and 9x20 ET44 They look great on your car by the way.

Nice stance indeed. No vibrations after adding the spacers? What brand spacers are you using? I'm having problems with mine (Eibach). Thnx in advance.

I have a local supplier that supply unbranded spacers for German cars, I have used them for lots of different cars now - never had an issue with vibration and I'm very sensitive. I had 20mm rear, 15mm fronts to begin with - reduced down to 15mm rear and nothing on the front purely to reduce the weight on the front assembly, but in either case I had zero vibrations.
