New wheels for 2012 135i

Looking to replace my m-sport 18 inch wheels. I like the look of these: http://www.wheeltraders.co.uk/index-...%20DARK%20GREY

Was wondering if 8.5x18 on front and back would fit okay with stock m sport suspension? And if anyone has any experience or insight into these wheels or similar, please let me know!

Back is close on the outside edge with a 35mm offset, but with a 245 tire you might get away with it on stock m-sport suspension

At the front though, I think you might rub the tab on the front fender/bumper interface with 245s and the same offset.

if you're looking for a fat rubber setup,you should look into getting ET40 instead or something similar. ET35 will hit your fenders like asbrr said.

if you want to know what it could look like,this is my 128i on a set of bronze fast wheels FC-04. it's a similar look. 18x8 ET40 all around.

cheers
