10" Rear wheel on a 135i?
Ok, i searched some and couldnt come up with much, so ill ask here.
I am looking at forgestar f14s and realllllly like the way thee 10" deep concave looks over the 9.5" semi concave. So is it possible with no fender rolling, on stock everything to run a 10" rear? What ET would it need to be? And what would be the max tire size that could fit back there? |

The way I just read it, the deep concaves come in 9.5" et 42 or 10" et 44 max. Both with require a little work to get them to fit without some rubbing. In my mind you may was well get the 9.5" since that should stick out around 4mm less and the tires are gonna have to be stretched either way, much more so on the 10".
If you are really worried about rubbiing, get the semi-concave at a 50 or so offset. If the deep concave looks that much better to you then just realize you may have to tweak/stretch a little to keep from rubbing. You never really have to roll, it's just one of the options.

I'm running BBS 10-inch wheel ET50 with a 10mm spacer, making it ET40. I have 255/35 tires. I rub a little bit on the fender liner and inner fender lip. I cut out some of the fender liner and did a slight roll and pull. Still rub a tad. However, I'm slammed on KW V2, and suspension is set as hard as possible too. Either way, it can definitely be done.

You might find a 10" wheel with the right offset, but you're probably going to be limited to a 255 tire unless you want to do extra work. Keep in mind that unless you copy exactly what someone else has done, you're doing an experiment that could get pretty expensive because there are a lot a variables here. If that's not what you want to do stick with a narrower wheel. It will be cheaper and fit a 255 tire better.
