Has Anyone ever mounted these TSW's to a 135?

parkstaff · 04-13-2009, 10:57 AM

Hello, Newbie here.....Just picked up a 135 cab in Montego blue and want to throw some 19" TSW Vortex on her. I dropped it with H&R Sport springs, and before I buy a set of these wheels want to now if anyone has ever seen them mounted? I cant find info anywhere ( They are a 40 offset and 8" wide so in my calculations they should be fine)
Any help would be great.....I will post some pics when I'm finished with the mods. Had a Z4 before, and did the same sort of mods just on 20"s. Here are a few pics of the TSW and a rendering of my new whip, along with a pic of the old one.
You guys post some good ideas....The forums here have really helped me out!

not personally a fan of the TSWs, and on the Z4m, are those X5 4.6is rims? they look pretty good

The wheels on the Z look way nicer. The TSWs look too basic.

Yeah the 4.6 X5 wheels....mounted up perfect with no rubbing at all! Didn't fit on the 135 though... but the style 128 x3 19" wheels mount up nicely but I cant find replicas anywhere!!1 anyone know who is doing the replica BMW wheels now besides wheelsandcaps.com? I like what you did with your 1... looks sick man

thanks, if you want a nice 5 spoke 19 inch set up, look at oem style 230s, a member on here has a set for sale he had on his e82, looked pretty good imho

The style 230 is the set I would really like, but from what I can see the fitment wont work... not enough offset! Thats my first choice for a 19" wheel! Have you seen it mounted to a 1er? I work for BMW and got all the OEm specs on the wheels and I think they would stick out too far from the wheel well. Do you know any different?
Thanks

http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=246979 looks like he had to roll the fenders a bit but they did fit, with a more stock size tire setup 225/35 front and 255/30 rear they may fit without rolling
search under his name for pics
