Spacers are not required for our direct fitment 18x8.5" ET45 & 18x9.5" ET62 1-series wheels, the wheel sizes and offsets were made specifically for the 1-series to not require any spacers or additional modifications with the proper street tire sizes in 235/40/18 and 265/35/18.
How about 8.5x18 et38 up front? I'm on stock suspension and height. Plan to get that front wheels and put 225/40/18 Michelin PSS, how's that? I heard 235/40/18 on et45 might require at least 3mm spacer if using Michelin PSS, so should et38 works fine?

Thanks
