Wheel width questions
Hey guys,
I've been looking around for a new set of wheels for a while and am constantly overwhelmed about every spec I have to get right. As I understand it, my 128i Sport pkg. has 7"-wide front wheels and 7.5"-wide rears. My tires are the stock size, 205/50 front 225/45 rear, 17". I'm considering the offset of all the wheels I've looked at, but how much does that half-inch matter when it comes to the width? If I kept my tires, would I be able to mount 7.5" wheels all around? Or even 8-inchers? Or would I have to stick with the staggered width? I don't want my tires to look stretched, I'm just not sure how much that half-inch would affect the mounting of my tires, or if I could get away with mounting 8" wheels all around as well.
Any advice would be appreciated.
