What is the correct offset for a 03 M3?

Will this be fine 41mm and 23mm for the rear

TIA

Stock offset is 47mm F and 26mm R for 8" and 9" wide rims F/R respectively.

Its hard to answer your question without knowing the wheel width.

If its an 8,8.5 or 9" F and 10" R, you could get away with up to 265mm rubber up front (maybe 275 even) and 275 on the rear. The rear would be tight tho with 23mm... depends on tire shoulder shape and car-to-car variability.

i run 245/275 on 8.5"/10" BBS RC rims with 38mm and 25mm F/R offsets on the street and 265 rubber on 27mm offset on 9.5" SSR Comp rims on the track.

Edit- neg camber will also play a role. i was running -2.5 camber in front (now -3) and was -1.3 in the rear (now -2.3)

I've got 'em and they're 9.5X19 front and 10X19 rear. Don't know what they weigh. I suspect there's not much difference from other forged wheels.
