Wheel offset help

Drawing a blank, would these off sets work on the 135i?
18x8 +34
18x8.5 +37

vs. OEM
18x7.5 +49
18x8.5 +52

Thanks

It'll fit but you may need to roll the fenders. Plus you can't go wider than 245 on the back

It'll fit no problem in the front, common spacer size run on stock rims with no issues is 18mm, this setup would only be 1mm more. You'll be able to get away with a 225/40 tire. I ran pretty much the same setup slammed low and there wasn't any rubbing. Run a touch more camber if you're worried about being too close.

The rears may need a small roll of the fenders but a tiny bit more camber would yield the clearance needed. Typical spacer run with the stock rear rims with no problems is 10mm, your rim sizing would sit outward only 5mm more.

Is there any reason why you're not going wider in the rear, say to a 9 or 9.5?

Fronts and rears will be perfectly fine with a 215 or 225 tire.
