You don't want the 38mm offset. You want the 45mm offset version of the wheel. The 38mm offset is the old version that was not 1 series specific. The site shows the 45mm offset version only in the 1 series section now.

There are lots of photos on the forum here. The older photos will be with cars running the ET38 version of the wheel, while the newer ones will have ET45 front wheels. You can check out the following links for some of the pics:

Yeah but i bought a pair from a guy off the forum and they are the older ones with 38mm offset so i was wandering if i should just run the 225/40/18 and not the 235 just to be safe about it?

[sean_oakley927]

O yeah and thanks for the pictures they look awesome cant wait to get these rim on the car.

If i buy the camber plates then im going to go for 235 at least maybe even 245.

225/40/18 if you don't have camber plates with the old offset. 235-245 with camber plates and no roll. 255/35/18 if you do camber and a front roll.

Depending on the tire type/size you may also have to trim the bumper to fender mounting tab

Don't go with the DWS unless you are planning to be driving in the snow......

I have the DW's and love them. Great grip and handling and on TR they have literally the same numbers as the Z1 Star Specs.

And for 225's up front you don't need camber plates. I had 225's on mine and never had any issues at all.
