BMW F82 F83 M4 Wheel & Tire Fitment Guide

Do you need the perfect wheel fitment for your 2015-2020 BMW F82, F83 M4? Our M4 fitment guide outlines the ideal chassis-specific fitments for your application that allow you to run the widest wheels and tires possible. Whether you’re looking for OEM replacements for your 437M or 763M wheels or track-oriented wheels with meaty tires that require modifications, our guide has you covered. This guide applies to all models of the F8X M4 including Base, Competition Packagage, M4 GTS, and M4 CS. Our wheels offer the option of the perfect aggressive stance or performance-oriented fitments in both Forged and Flow Formed construction. These designs include our ARC-8, EC-7, and SM-10 on the Flow Formed side and ARC-8RT, ML-10RT, VS-5RS, EC-7RS, SM-10RS, SM-10RE, and VS-5RE on the forged side.

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.

* The factory Carbon Ceramic 6 piston 400x38mm front brakes require 19" wheels or larger. Fitments that have been confirmed to clear will have the following brake clearance indicator: Clears CCB

* We have recently optimized our 18" ARC-8 barrel to accommodate the factory steel brakes. Older ARC-8s made before 2021 will not clear the 380mm 4 piston base blue steel brakes

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.

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.

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.

These wheel and tire configurations are best suited for hardcore track junkies and club racers competing for a spot on the podium. Everything from Extreme Summer tires to full Racing Slicks are commonly used depending on your experience behind the wheel, class rules, etc. While some of these wheel fitments can be ran with the factory alignment, additional negative camber is strongly encouraged to maximize performance and tire longevity. See fitment notes under each tire configuration below to see if modifications are required.

Even with the appropriate amount of negative camber dialed in, some of the more extreme fitments can scrub the inner plastic fender liners under suspension compression and/or when turning the steering wheel to full lock. This is par for the course when pushing the limits of wheel and tire fitment.

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.

Click Here to view our F8X M3/4 master brake clearance guide

* The factory Carbon Ceramic 6 piston 400x38mm front brakes require 19" wheels or larger. Fitments that have been confirmed to clear will have the following brake clearance indicator: Clears CCB

* We have recently optimized our 18" ARC-8 barrel to accommodate the factory steel brakes. Older ARC-8s made before 2021 will not clear the 380mm 4 piston base blue steel brakes

Identifying Suspension Types

If you’re using coilovers, see the image below to identify which type of coilover spring you have, as it may effect your wheel fitment.

Aftermarket F8X M3/M4 suspensions known to reduce inner clearance (includes but not limited to):

• Bilstein PSS9 & PSS10
• KW Height-Adjustable Spring (HAS) kit
• KW Variants
• KW Clubsports
