2020 BMW M2 — square wheel setup on a car that came staggered

TrackCollectorCommunity StarterApr 16, 20262020 BMW M2 CompetitionBaltimore
I am considering a square wheel/tire setup so I can rotate tires and simplify track spares. Besides clearance, what handling changes should I expect? Interested in real owner experience more than guesses. What would you check next?

Don't overfit one forum story to your car. If it still isn't clear on the 2020 BMW M2, a specialist hour can be cheaper than another round of parts. That's where I'd start. Time, temperature, and whether it's in gear are the notes that actually help a shop. A day of patience here is cheaper than a wrong part. I'm in no rush to be a hero on it.

I'd keep this practical. Verify the cheap/easy branch on the 2020 BMW M2 before a big repair or a big spend. That's where I'd start. Stop there until you know. This is me being the wet blanket on purpose.

Agree — and I'd add this: On the 2020 BMW M2 in Baltimore, I'd fix the thing you'll notice every day before chasing spec-sheet extras. I'd do that before spending real money. On “square wheel setup on a car that,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Write the result down so the next test isn't a repeat of the last one. That's my plan before I call anyone.

Write down what you already tried. A second data point from another 2020 BMW M2 owner helps more than a generic diagnosis. Then you'll know the next fork. That's the whole play. I'd sleep better after that step, even if it finds nothing. This is the version I'd tell a friend.
