BMW 2 Series wheel fitment — F44
Overview
The BMW 2 Series is a range of subcompact executive cars (C-segment) manufactured by BMW since 2014, spun-off from the 2-door models of the BMW 1 Series into a separate series. It was first launched as a rear-wheel-drive 2-door coupé and convertible in November 2013, followed by front-wheel drive variants including the Active Tourer compact MPV (F45) and Gran Tourer (F46). In 2019, the F44 Gran Coupé fastback sedan was introduced. The second generation of the coupé (G42) debuted in July 2021 as a rear-wheel-drive model based on the CLAR platform.

Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 6J–8J | ET22–ET45 |
| Rear (staggered) | 7J–9J | ET33–ET50 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
