So with the Fk8 type R getting older, i seen some jdm branded rims come up. Theree fitment is a 5x120 and wondered has anyone tried out the type r fitment+38 offsets or perhaps found a reverse staggered set ranging from 8.5 9.5 widths?

The FK8 Type R centerbore is smaller than the BMW 72.56mm CB. If the wheel is made to be a direct fit on the Type R, you will need to have the centerbore of the wheels machined out to BMW spec before using.

thanks for the response ! yea i think some manufacturers like rays sets the centerbore to 75mm so hubrings may be required. But the offset of et 38 going to be a stretch for the rear wheels
