Stock info on wheels
Guys need some info.
1) What are the stock 18" wheel sizes? F&R? 2) What are the stock 18" wheel Offsets? F&R? 3) What are the lug thread sizes? I am looking into 18" Advan Rs wheels for my GF. I am a Honda guru, dont know much about BMW, so a little help would be appreciated. She is lowered on Eibach springs and stock 18" wheels as of now. I dont want any problems with rubbing, etc. Would I go with 18x7.5 48 offest for F&R or 18x8 45 offset? http://www.gruppe-s.com/Advan/advanrs.htm Also I want to get tuner lugs what do you recommend? |

So you're trying to use the same size front and rear I assume. That website does not seem to list german type 5x120 fitments. I don't believe the RS comes in 5x120's with high offsets, but RZ's do. Go with RZ's 18x8 et45 if planning a square setup. Your GF will be very happy!

I did search for awhile just never came across the size, I thought that these were the sizes but wanted to 100% positive. Thanks for the answers. Also I want to get tuner lugs what do you suggest/what size?
BTW Advan RS do come for the euro applications. http://www.upgrademotoring.com/wheel...a/advan_rs.htm |

I've never researched tuner lugs.
The RS does come in 5x120 but look at the offsets. Go with the RZ.
