I believe in you Holly! I don't care much about the picture, just if they clear the brake calipers and can be spaced out enough to not look stupid.

I just ordered the standard BMW Winter Tire Package. $3k. Was told that the Wheel/Tire protection package I bought for the standard ones will also cover these at no extra charge.
The other option I was looking at was picking up new summer rims (HRE P40S Charcoal) and then using OEM as my winter set, but up here in PA we do get a fair amount of accumulation and thought a square option would be safer. |

1M OEM front: 19 x 9 ET31 rear: 19 x 10 ET23 New wheels 18 x 9.5 ET41 Calculated results: Front: 16mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will RETRACT 4mm Rear 24mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will RETRACT 12mm I know I lose an inch in diamater so I guess the question remains, will they fit? |

Without knowing the measurements I'd say that losing 14mm on the outside edge of the rears would cause problems fitting over the calipers.

Does any one know if the BMW 162's 18" will fit the 1M?
Would anything that fit a 2008 M3 fit on the 1M? Last edited by Ender_; 09-25-2011 at 01:22 PM.. |

Anyone else successfully found any 18" wheels for winter that work without spacers for less than $250.00 per wheel? Tire rack has nothing in 18" that look good IMO. Square set-up preferred.

I have no desire to drive it in the winter either, however I don't exactly have a lot of options. I am considering picking up the BMW winter tires/rim package from the states. The Canadian dealer quoted me $3600...I noticed someone got the same for $3k

Honestly I would rather spend 3k on a winter car then winter rims and tires and if the 135 starts to be a huge headache this winter thats exactly what im going to do. This will actually be my first winter with two cars so im just crossing my fingers that not storing it works out. |
