just bought myself a 1er yesterday. Does anyone happen to know what wheels these are?

Look like Alufelgen CS7. Will be for sure if they have the lettering around the center with the offset and the "CS7".

after checking the pics i have, the lettering seems to be similar to the pictures i've found on the internet.
I'm getting a little bit of scrubbing on the rears on larger bumps in the road.

Agreed, look like CS7s.

They look like 18's and concavity of the front wheel looks about right for 1er offsets (you could check that on the wheel). What tires and sizes are on there? Did you look for wheel spacers on the hubs pushing the wheels out? Probably just rubbing from big tires and shitty stock dampers bottoming out on big bumps.

It has 245/35's on the rear which I didn't think was too bad. No spacers on there either.
Shame, cus I was planning on eibachs and Koni yellows at some point.

Are they 18 or 19? Can you read the offset on the wheel? The 19 inch CS7s have a max 35mm offset, the 18s come in offsets that will work on the car, and ones that won't. 35 will work on the front, probably, but almost surely too little offset for the rear. You may have been burned by a previous owner's bad mod. Which happens. Many won't buy a modded car because of the possibility.

They're 18's
I shall double check the figures on the wheels later. It's not a problem, I shall just have to get some that fit nicely.

Wheels were one of the first things I wanted, along with a couple of suspension mods.

Then it's down to the diameter and offset of the wheels, well rear wheels. 245/35 is the stock fitment for tires, however some tires (like Mich PSS) run super square and wide, which can cause rubbing if the offset is too aggressive and you don't have enough camber.
