Custom rims! NEED HELP

josh_whitehead · 10-01-2014, 06:29 PM

I'm getting custom rims for my 08 bmw 135i m sport I'm getting 19x9.5 on back and 19x8.5 on front I understand I need to roll my fenders but what offset do I need on the rims and what tire would I need?

I'd get 19x8.5 et42 fr, 19x9.5 et56r. Tires depend on brand. I'd get Mich PSS 225/35fr and 255/30r. I might change my offsets a tad if it made a difference in how concave, etc the wheels will look.

with this high offset i dont think you must roll the fenders.

take the same offset as VMR had on their wheels:

8.5 ET45
9.5 ET50

19x8.5 rear ET 45

Tires

Hankook ventus v12 evo
