Looking for the best wheel and tire fitment for your 2023-current G87 M2? Our M2 fitment guide outlines the best options for every type of M2 whether you’re looking for an upgrade over the stock wheels or an aggressive track fitment with wide, meaty tires. Apex Forged wheels like the VS-5RS and SM-10RS provide a substantial increase in performance over the stock configuration as well as additional benefits including non-staggered diameter tire options. Our Flow Formed SM-10s provide a value option perfect for M2 owners looking for a winter fitment without the Dealership markup and poor tire availability of the OEM options. Our wheels are optimized to clear the large factory brakes that are equipped on the M2 even in our 18” M2 track fitment available in our VS-5RS design. If you have a non-M G42 2 series, head over to our BMW G42 2 Series Wheel & Tire Fitment Guide to get your ideal fitment.

Easy upgrades for street-driven cars
These fitments focus on ease of use and fitment. While they do offer increased performance through weight savings and/or tire model availability, fitment is prioritized. Our stagged 10" front/11" rear G87 M2 fitment allows owners to reuse their stock tires on new lighter and wider forged wheels. The additional width of this fitment is perfect for upgrading to wider tires in the future.
Square Configurations
Recommended for enthusiasts that want to mitigate understeer and rotate tires front & rear for extended life. Square configurations may compromise rear-end grip when compared to staggered configurations.

Staggered Configurations
Recommended for enthusiasts that prioritize rear end grip/traction. Wheels and tires cannot be rotated front to rear and large staggers may induce understeer.

Aggressive fitments focused on appearance
These fitments prioritize appearance and aesthetics over pure performance. These setups do often still increase performance relative to the stock wheels, but use larger diameter wheels with lower offsets to fully fill the front and rear fenders. While 19" diameter Apex G87 wheels clear any of the factory brakes equipped on the M2, Our 20" fitments are a fantastic option for those who prefer larger wheels without the significant weight penalty of other aftermarket options.

Wider fitments for enhanced performance
These fitments are our most popular options for G87 M2 owners. They offer a substantial increase in performance and tire width without requiring major modifications in most cases. Dual-duty fitments are the goal here with tire options like ultra high performance summer tires or 200TW track compounds being used to get more consistent on track performance and better laptimes while still being streetable.

Track focused fitments that require significant modifications
This fitment represents our most aggressive option for the G87 M2. These wheels require spacers and modifications to the fender liners, but allow you to run a wide and square wheel and tire package perfect for track tire compounds. This wheel setup compromises ease of fitment for on track performance but represents a fantastic way to achieve personal bests using a versatile and widely available range of tire sizes.

For maximum straight line traction and lowest ET's
This section is for enthusiasts seeking the most straight-line traction possible from their high HP build. If you don't mind sacrificing a little handling to get it, our drag fitments are the answer. They also feature our high friction paintless knurled beads, a fully street-legal alternative to beadlock wheels, which helps prevent tire slippage under heavy load. These fitments are not recommended for cold or wet conditions but they are perfect for G87 M2 owners looking to minimize 1/4 and 1/8 mile times without custom wheels.
