Really like these!
Can someone do a PS?
It reminds me of the F1 wheel on the Mclaren!

Saw these on the Tire Rack site, but when I entered in the 1er, it wasn't one of the wheels that came up as fitting the car. No 1 fitments yet?

These show up on the tire rack site, but there's no offset shown.

Gill, do you know what the offset will be?

Thanks.

I would definitely go for a set of these but it's all going to be down to the offsets as I don't want to run spacers. I'm fitting a set of AP 6-piston calipers up front so I need a bit more brake clearance.

I've looked at so many wheels I like but they just don't do them in the offsets I need.

So based on these offsets, do you think it's possible to fit 8.5" front, 9" rears on 235/265 tires?

Or perhaps 8" fronts, 8.5" rears?

Thanks...

Gill, what's the center bore of these wheels, and do they require hubcentric rings?

Tough call. You'll be real close on clearance with the 235/265 set up. The 8" front would be a lot safer. Mikeo got rubbing on the GTS-R's with a 8.5"/265 combo and that had a higher offset.

CB is 79. 79/72.5 ring needed.

Not being to good with tires, tire sizes, wheels, spacers, etc. Will 18x8 work upfront with 225 and 18x9 in the back with a 275 and rolled fenders without rubbing?

Also any ideas on the wheel weights for 18x8, 18x8.5, & 18x9?

ET40 on a 9" wide wheel in back will not do 275's, unfortunately. I wonder if 255's would even fit. I have ET43 on a 9" wide wheel in the rear and can only barely fit 245 Dunlop Star Specs (like sheet of paper). There's about 1/2" of room to be gained by rolling the rears though. That might get you 255's...

You really need a good low 50's offset for 265 fitment in the rear.

True. With stock height and fenders 265x35 rubbed the fender liner. And that was with et48 on 8.5" wheels. There was considerable room inside that higher offset wheels could use though.

I want to pull the trigger on these for my 135. I want to go to 17s and no run flats. Do I need 17x8 or 17X8.5? Is 205/50-17 the best size tire to run? I want plug and play; no spacers, no clearance problems and minimum speedo error.

Thanks
