Quick answer: The 2016–2021 BMW M2 (F87, including the M2 Competition and M2 CS) runs a 5×120 bolt pattern with a 72.56 mm hub bore and a staggered setup. Variant's go-to forged fitment is a 20×9 front / 20×10 rear, with a lighter 19×8.5 / 19×10 option for track tires. Every wheel is forged to order in your choice of size, offset and finish, and is engineered to clear the M2's M Sport / M Compound brakes. Note: the newer G87 M2 (2023+) switched to a 5×112 bolt pattern — confirm your generation before ordering. Shop all BMW M2 wheels →
BMW M2 fitment basics
- Bolt pattern: 5×120 on the F87 (2016–2021). The G87 M2 (2023+) is 5×112, so check which car you have first.
- Setup: staggered — a wider rear than front for rear-drive traction. A near-square track setup is available if you autocross or run track days.
- Variant fitment(s): 20×9 / 20×10 (the daily-plus-track favorite) and 19×8.5 / 19×10 (lighter, with more sidewall for R-compound and slick tires).
- Hub-centric: machined to the M2's 72.56 mm hub so the wheel is centered by the hub, not the lug bolts — zero vibration.
- TPMS: fully compatible. Reuse your factory M2 sensors and the dash light stays off.
The Variant BMW M2 fitment(s)
The 20×9 / 20×10 staggered setup is the one most M2 owners choose: it fills the arches, plants the rear, and still leaves room for a daily-friendly tire. If your M2 lives at the track, the 19×8.5 / 19×10 option drops rotating mass and adds sidewall for grippier rubber — the kind of precision-first choice that pays off in lap times. Either way, offsets are tuned per car so the face sits flush without rubbing or spacers.
Forged monoblock designs for the BMW M2
Six forged monoblock designs are made for the M2, each cut from a single 6061-T6 forging: the spoke-clean Aure, the mesh Maxim, the split-spoke Nysa, the directional Rian, the twin-spoke Sena, and the multi-spoke Zeno.
Going custom: multi-piece & built-to-order options for your BMW M2
The M2 is a track tool first, so the build options are ranked for the driver who cares about grip and unsprung weight before anything else:
- EX2 (EVO 2-Piece) — the lightweight, motorsport-minded two-piece. The first call for a track-day M2 that wants to shed rotating mass.
- 3-Piece Forged (3P & 3P+) — concours-level customization: tailor lip width, concavity and a polished or brushed barrel for a true show-and-go build.
- 2-Piece Forged — a forged center on a forged barrel for precise width and offset control with a clean, modern face.
- EVO Beadlock — true beadlock engineering for the most aggressive setups.

Popular BMW M2 wheel & finish combos
- Sena in Gloss Black — the menacing, blacked-out track look.
- Zeno in Satin Gunmetal — stealthy and motorsport-flavored.
- Rian in Gloss Bronze — the classic enthusiast bronze on a directional spoke.
- Nysa in Satin Black — understated split-spoke aggression.
- Maxim in Gloss Gunmetal — mesh face with depth and shine.
- Aure in Chrome Powder — a bright, high-contrast statement.
Why forged matters on a BMW M2
The M2's appeal is precision, and precision starts with unsprung weight. A Variant forged monoblock is pressed from a single billet of 6061-T6 aluminum, so the grain flows around the spokes instead of being interrupted like a cast wheel. The result is a wheel that is meaningfully lighter and stronger than the cast originals — less rotating mass for quicker turn-in and braking, more strength for curbs and track abuse. On a car this responsive, you feel every pound you take off the corner.

Frequently asked questions
What bolt pattern is the BMW M2?
The F87 BMW M2 (2016–2021, including Competition and CS) is 5×120 with a 72.56 mm hub bore. The newer G87 M2 (2023+) changed to 5×112, so confirm your generation before ordering.
What wheel size fits a BMW M2?
Variant's most popular M2 fitment is a staggered 20×9 front / 20×10 rear. A lighter 19×8.5 / 19×10 option is also offered for track tires. See every option on the BMW M2 collection.
Can I run a square setup on my M2 for the track?
Yes. The standard street fitment is staggered, but a near-square setup is available for autocross, track days and tire rotation. Tell us your tire plan and we'll spec the widths and offsets.
Can I get multi-piece wheels for my BMW M2?
Yes — every M2 fitment is available as a forged monoblock or as multi-piece: EX2 (EVO 2-piece), 2-Piece Forged, 3-Piece Forged, and EVO Beadlock. All are made to order in your spec.
What's the difference between monoblock and 3-piece wheels?
A monoblock is forged from one piece of aluminum — lightest and stiffest, ideal for track use. A 3-piece wheel bolts a forged center to inner and outer barrels, so you can fine-tune lip, concavity and width and refinish each part separately. Monoblock favors performance; 3-piece favors customization.
Will Variant wheels clear the M2's brakes?
Yes. Variant M2 fitments are engineered to clear the factory M Sport and M Compound brakes, and we account for big-brake kits — just tell us your setup when ordering.
Are Variant BMW M2 wheels forged?
Yes. Every Variant M2 wheel — monoblock and multi-piece — is forged from 6061-T6 aluminum for a lighter, stronger wheel than the cast originals.
Do Variant wheels work with my M2's TPMS?
Yes. Our wheels are fully TPMS-compatible — reuse your factory M2 sensors and the dashboard light stays off.
What finishes are available for the BMW M2?
Standard finishes include Gloss Black, Satin Black, Gloss Gunmetal, Satin Gunmetal, Gloss Bronze, Satin Bronze, Chrome Powder and Raw Milled — and because every wheel is built to order, custom colors are available on request.
