Hey guys, I am looking to put on the factory M6 (style 167m) wheels on my 535. Do I need any spacer for the front and rear? and what would the recommended tire size for them? Thank you for looking.

no spacers needed..

recc'd tires sizes would be the same as the M5/166 wheels

245/35/19 F
275/30/19 R

GL, congrats, and :welcome: to the forum

Thank you for your respond guys, I have one more question. Currently they do have the very good condition original tires mounted, they are 255 40 19 in front and 285 35 19 in rear. Would I have any problem if I dont change the tires??

they will rub...255's for sure...since these are m6 wheels, the rear offsets of ET17 + the 285 tire will most likely cause rubbing if you have the sport pkg and/or planning in dropping it..

here;s a good thread on tire sizes for 19" wheels+tires...

Thank you for your respond, FYI, my car is fully loaded with sports and premium. I am not going to do much mods. Will only add the M-tech rear bumper and the m6 wheels. Will share some pics once complete. I will go ahead and purchase the tires..
