Need Help with Wheel Specs ASAP

john32443 · 03-29-2015, 09:44 PM

Got a beautiful set of VMRs in front of me, but the offset are a bit too low for a 1er. I have a 128i, on stock suspension (not the m-sport), can someone please tell me if they'll fit without issues?
I really don't have time to do a test fit, they're going to go quick.
Here are the specs, can someone please let me know asap!

2 x 225-40-18 Michelin Pilot SuperSport 92Y Tires
2 x 255-35-18 Michelin Pilot SuperSport 94Y Tires
2 x VMR Wheels V710 18 Inch Wheels - 18x8.5 ET35 5x120 72.6 - Gunmetal

Nope. Rears will stick out like a sore thumb and you can kiss goodbye to your front fenders without any camber

Negative. With those tires and wheel sizes you need to be +40 up front and +45 at rear, and there is a chance that it might still rub when you have a full load on your suspension.
