Widest wheels and tires that would fit ?

I'm curious do you guys think the 4 series platform can run the M5 f90 or 8 series specification wheels and tires
20x9.5 fronts 275/35/20
20x10.5 rears 285/35/20

thanks in advance

I don't have the exact specs in mind, but I believe the F90 wheels have a bit higher offset. That means you are narrowing the stance of the vehicle and might need spacers to get it back to stock (to avoid contact) or wider offsets. The tirewall on those tires look to be one size higher than they should be as well. Also if you're wondering how wide you can go on the platform, well the platform is still new and the track section in the forum is very quiet. You can contact Apex as they were 3D scanning a G8x as of last week and ask what sizes they are seeing that can fit under the fenders. Hopefully when the track rats start using the platform we can see how wide wheels and tires can fit on these cars.

Yea there isn't much literature about these cars yet because of it's infancy- I guess I will just have to wait and see.
