I doubt it's your wheels touching the fender. What size tire do you have on there?
Don't jack-up the car to fix a problem you caused with the wrong set-up. For instance, my 18x9.5" Apex rear wheels have a 62mm offset and fit just fine. Last edited by BMWCCA1; 02-15-2023 at 08:11 AM.. |

I asked what size tire, and you pointed me to the cryptic reference you posted about wheel size. If you don't really want correct answers, keep giving us incomplete information. ![]() |

Try an alignment. Those specs should fit.

Am I missing something here? What tire size are we talking? I think it's the wrong size tire. Almost any 255/35 R18 [or smaller] should fit.
