Finnally got my winter setup the way I want it

Using Tireracks Bremmer Kraft BRo5 with Dunlop SP Winter Sport SPs. 18x9 in rear with 235/40/18 and 18x8 up front with 225/40/18. I Should have gone narrower in the front for as low as I am.

^^Those e46 wheels look really sharp on your one!

nikijack · 01-24-2011, 09:01 AM

Hi:
These are from my e46, 16" with Michelin Ice tires. They work great here in the snow belt.

ZIPNBYE · 01-24-2011, 09:30 AM

The 330 sport package wheels look very good on your red 09.

i thought E46 wheels didn't fit our 1ers

???

but that looks pretty sick actually.... do you have any pictures from the front or rear showing how the offsets worked out?

Wilks · 01-24-2011, 03:01 PM

Tire Rack has been doing good business on the Motegi Racing MR118s - mine are 17s with 225/45/17s

offsets are just about perfect

stock is 7.5 wide 49mm offset, these are 7.5 41mm offset, so stick out 8mm more towards the fender.

rear is 8.5 wide 52mm offset, these are 8.5 50mm offset, so stick out 2mm more towards fender.

I went narrow 205 up front because i was lowered to ensure didn't rub, but 225/45/17s might work.

more of my pics here.
