    Thank you. I use a 10.5 square set with 265s for the track but this is my street set up.

    The biggest variables that haven't been mentioned yet are your ride height and camber settings. If are running a more aggressive front negative camber setting you will need the lower offset front. I tend to lean on the aggressive side fitment-wise (which always gets a negative reaction on this forum) but I would suggest the 9.5 +22 and 10.5 +22 option, if your set on running staggered sized and have -3* or more negative camber up front. Also assuming you have rolled fenders and trimmed rear fenders.

    This is a 9.5 +20 10.5 +20 set up with 275/35 square, -3.4* front and -2.5* rear camber:

    10.5" should be et20 or 22
    9.5"et35 with a small enough spacer (if needed) for brake clearance is better (scrub radius) than 9.5"et22 (no spacer), plus looks better (not too much poke) plus preserves your paint (less poke).

    19x10.5 ET45 doesn't make sense for the rear, you're going to want something more like ET25 or 20 depending on your alignment and desired look.

    These wheels aren't out yet. You'll have to talk to Apex about the caliper clearance and lip size. These wheels probably do not have great brake clearance.

    You almost have your offsets reversed. You generally want something above 35mm in the front and below 27mm in the rear.

    Make sure it fits. See our detailed guide with square & staggered fitments for your 2001-2006 BMW E46 M3. View photos of street & track setups.

    For the wheel experts

    Hello everyone, Im interested on the new Apex wheels, the
    ML-10 RT for my E46 M3.
    As of now I’m running OEM brakes.
    My plan is to buy a new set of wheels and install BBK.
    Apex doesn’t have to many options on their wheels spec.
    Would a
    19x9.5 et22 and a 19x10.5 et 45 works?
    Will I have enough clearance for the bbk?
    also how about the lip? I don’t like small wheel lips.
    You can’ tell I don’t know much on how the off sets works lol…
Working...
