17x8 +20et on a 2011 135i?

phobic · 04-24-2013, 10:19 AM

as the title states Im wondering if there will be any issues with 17x8 +20 on a 2011 bmw 135i without spacers.

Im new to bmw and just want to see if these wheels will work before picking them up.

thanks!

Too aggressive for any reasonable size tire. If you wanted to stretch a 195 width tire or something silly like that, it may work.

They could be made fit with a stretch and some camber. This isn't stanceworks though so look for something with a less aggressive offset. I run an et45 on all four corners and its a squeeze. Look into the Apex Arc-8, could be the squared function your looking for in a more reasonable offset.

That size is really aggressive, and I wouldn't recommend that. It sticks out 19mm further than our recommended front specs, and those are pretty flush as is.

Fair enough. Thanks everyone! the tires on them are 205/40s so its not crazy stretch.

so is the only issue with them is that they'd stick out past the fender and possibly rub?

They will stick out past the fender around an inch and rub horribly, not to mention destroy your fenders.

I saw somewhere on net picture of 135 with 5er wheels which looked ridiculous
