Do you need the perfect wheel fitment for your 2020-current G80 or G81 M3? Our G80 and G81 Touring fitment guide covers all of the options we offer to increase wheel width and allow owners to run wide tires. These fitments are perfect for everything from customers looking to run staggered diameter wheels to reuse OE tires to fully track-ready 18” square fitments designed to lower laptimes. Our Forged G80 wheels reduce weight compared to the factory wheel sizes while upping wheel width and improving tire options. This includes our VS-5RS and SM-10RS. Our Flow Formed SM-10s offer affordable winter fitments for G80 or G81 owners that need more winter tire options. These wheel and tire fitments work for all models of G80 and G81 including Base, Competition Package, M3 CS, and also can be compatible with a number of M Performance Parts. If you’re interested in Apex wheels for your G20 or G21 3 series, head over to our BMW G20 G21 3 Series Wheel & Tire Fitment Guide.
Brake Clearance Information
In the engineering phase of wheel development we 3D scan factory brakes and review 2D aftermarket brake templates in order to optimize our barrel profiles and spoke curvatures. As a result, our wheels offer massive brake clearance so you can run the smallest possible wheel diameter.

Easy upgrades for street-driven cars
These bolt-on wheel fitments are ideal for enthusiasts enjoying their car day-to-day on the street, and they are typically paired with all-season or performance-oriented summer tires. These wheel and tire configurations will improve the appearance and performance of the car without requiring modifications or adjustments to the factory alignment. Just bolt on and enjoy!
While these wheel fitments can be used for track days and AutoX, performance will be left on the table. Drivers that prioritize performance should review our Performance Street & Track and/or Hardcore Track & Race sections below.
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
Ideal for the driver who wants to fill out the wheel wells with the widest possible rubber and/or perfectly flush offsets. These fitments are sometimes direct bolt-on, but oftentimes require small spacers, negative camber, or rolled fenders for the sake of dialing in the perfect blend of function and form.
Narrower tire sizes relative to wheel width are more common here to help move the tire sidewall away from the fenders with more aggressive offsets. Street-oriented all-season and summer tires are popular options.

Wider fitments for enhanced performance
Whether you enjoy spirited street driving or you are a weekend track warrior chasing lap times, these wheel & tire configurations are ideal for enthusiasts looking for a more dramatic improvement in performance and they are typically paired with performance-oriented summer tires or track oriented R-compounds.
The suspension type, alignment settings, and tire brand/size can be changed accordingly to set the car up for either environment. While many of these wheel fitments can be ran with the factory alignment, if you plan to track the car we highly recommended dialing in negative camber to improve handling and to extract the most performance and longevity out of your tires. See fitment notes under each tire configuration below to see if modifications are required.

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.

Each of our wheel designs is available in two or three different levels of concavity, which we call Profiles. The Profile is dictated by the width and offset, meaning wide lower-offset wheels will have more concavity, while narrow higher-offset wheels will have less concavity.

Should I Dial in Negative Camber, and How Much is Right for me?
Whether you are a casual weekend track warrior that still enjoys your car on the street, or a hard core racer competing for a spot on the podium, negative camber is a vital part of chassis setup that has many benefits. Not only will adding negative camber create more room for wider wheel and tire configurations, it more importantly improves handling, turn-in and tire longevity.
