18-inch square daily
- Front and rear
- 18 × 8.5 inch, ET35 · 235/40 R18
A common OEM+ choice that fits without spacers and allows tyre rotation. Works with xDrive because all four tyres are the same size.

BMW 4 Series F32/F33/F36 wheel fitment
The F32 4 Series shares its hubs and much of its wheel fitment with the F30 3 Series. Owners tend to run a square 18-inch set for daily use or a 19-inch stagger to fill the coupe's arches, with brake package and xDrive tyre matching the main things to check.

Explained in our guides
Read these before choosing wheels for the 4 Series: they explain the offset, fitment and hub numbers in this guide.
- Wheel offset explained: choosing ET without guessingUnderstand positive and negative wheel offset, calculate inner clearance and outer position, and choose an ET using measurements from your own car.
- Flush, poke and tucked fitment: measure the whole tyreUnderstand flush, poked and tucked wheels, calculate how width and offset change the look, and check clearance beyond a parked side-on photograph.
- Staggered vs square wheels: tyres, rotation and AWDCompare square and staggered wheel setups, calculate front-to-rear tyre diameter, and understand rotation limits and all-wheel-drive requirements.
Popular community setups
Starting points for a build. Read the notes with each setup, especially if your car is lowered or has different brakes.
18-inch wider square
- Front and rear
- 18 × 9 inch, ET30 · 245/40 R18
Listed by retailers as a flush fitment that sits closer to the arches. Check the wheel design against the brake package on M Sport brake cars.
19-inch flush stagger
- Front
- 19 × 9 inch, ET29 · 245/35 R19
- Rear
- 19 × 10 inch, ET40 · 275/30 R19
A documented road and stance fitment. Retailers also list a milder 19x9 ET28 front with 19x9.5 ET33 rear on the same tyres. Usually run on lowering springs or coilovers.
Width and offset guidance
Offset range
ET28 to ET43
Popular aftermarket setups sit between ET28 and ET43 at 8.5–10 inches wide. Factory rears are ET47 on 8.5-inch wheels.
Common width limit
Measure before ordering
A maximum width has not been confirmed. Tyre shape, ride height and alignment all change the available space.
These figures belong to the setups described here. Combining the widest wheel with either end of the offset range does not guarantee a safe fit. For how ET moves the wheel in and out, read wheel offset explained; for how far the tyre can sit out, see flush, poke and tucked fitment.
Clearance notes
- Factory bolts are M14x1.25 with a 60-degree conical seat, tightened to 140 Nm. Spacers need longer bolts of the same seat type.
- The hub is 72.56 mm; wheels are typically bored to 72.6 mm. Use hub rings with a larger bore.
- M Sport brakes set the minimum barrel and spoke clearance, so confirm the wheel design against the brake package before buying a smaller diameter.
- xDrive cars need front and rear tyres with matched rolling diameters. A square setup avoids the issue.
- The G22 4 Series that followed uses 5x112, so F32 wheels do not carry over. The F82 M4 has different factory sizes and is covered separately.
- Check full steering lock and suspension travel with the car loaded. Match wheel load rating, tyre load and speed ratings, fastener seats and brake clearance.
