Question Looking a a winter setup from a m235i, will it fit?

I've looked through the "what fits thread" and ended up more confused than when I started.

A friend of mine is selling the following set up
Nokian Hakkepelita 225/45-17s on sport edition A7 17x7.5 with a 32 offset.

Will that work on my 128i non-sport package, 100% stock.



Thanks in advance!

The tire sizes are correct. The offset is quite aggressive. You might be ok in the front, you run the risk of rubbing in the rear. You need a numerically higher offset in the rear ideally. With stock suspension you might get away with it for a while, but I suspect there will be some rubbing under heavy loads/cornering/big bumps

EDIT: Seems the front is much farther out than the rear when comparing stock sizing. You might be ok in the rear based on the below:


Here is the before / after for the front (using the stock 18" sizing):
http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php...7-5&offset2=32

"Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 17mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 17mm more than before. "

Here is the before / after for the rear (using the stock 18" sizing):
http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php...7-5&offset2=32

"Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 32.7mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 7.3mm more than before. "
