135i wheel offsets?

GK 1 · 03-09-2012, 09:05 AM

Hi,

I am in the market to buy a new set of wheels & i have decided to go for
the 19inch VMR V705 wheel.So i contacted them & they told me that the offset on my vehicle will be
19x8.5 ET35 and 19x9.5 ET45 & it is considered aggressive on the 1 series. What does that mean?

Anyone?

Hi GK1,

Aggressive meaning you might experience tire rubbing on your fenders. The 1 Series usually takes high offsets like a ET40-45mm (Front) and ET45-50mm (Rear).

Hope that helps.
