BBS RC's...a very classic wheel! They look awesome on the 1er.
I also really like the color combo.

sweet car!

however, i was under the impression that H&R offered three different springs:

H&R OE Sport - (1"f/1"r)
H&R Sport - (1.8"f/1.3"r)
H&R SuperSport (2.2"f/1.6"r)

any idea which of these is yours? i'm assuming they're the H&R Sport because someone else posted pics of their H&R Sport drop, and it looks very similar to yours.

What offset are those RCs? I used to have a set of 18x8.5 +38mm RCs on an E36 I had. Beautiful wheels.

No idea actually, because in Europe there are only two types of H&R springs for this car: -3 or -5 cm (equals +/- 1,8 & 2,2") I got the -5cm, so I guess it's the SuperSport version, but not sure... ;-)

I don't think those will work for a 135.

Well, the OP has them on his wife's car that is a 135 so they must fit but I do agree that they must rub a bit with that offset.

The offsets and fenders don't change. They'll work on a 135i as well as they work on the car in the pics.
