But... I'm just so surprised after looking through many threads (jzhang's in particular) that this forum does not approve.. I'm confused.. why does it matter? It's not like I'm painting my car purple tossing in 20 inch rims with spinners and adding hydraulics, lmao their just offsets/tire sizes...
That's my point exactly. Too many people here are just anti anything out of the ordinary and don't realize most of the people running around static actually have a set of track wheels/tires.
I will either be buying or building a set of bbs rs/rf this winter at 18x9/18x10 et30-40 with some 215f and 245r. But I also plan on keeping my stock 261 with 225/40f and 255-265/35r for autox or track days.
Yeah it is difficult getting over speed bumps and getting into driveways but that's the whole fitment game. Making something that shouldn't work actually work is the goal.
As far as I'm concerned all you guys with 18x8.5/9.5 vmrs in 45-50 offset are making the 1er look cheap and boring. Oh and make sure you get a cf diffuser and put a bms sticker on the window *rolls eyes*. No hate for the people that fit this category but if you come in here with a cookie-cutter 1er and slam a guy for doing something out of the ordinary you really hold no ground in your argument.

Props to the guys in here fitting these aggressive wheels.
