Will these AC Schnitzers fit?
I've been in contact with Claus at Felgen-garage in Germany about purchasing a set of Rennsport Type 1's. However I wanna be sure there will be no rubbing.
8.5x18 ET38 in the front. 10x18 ET32 in the rear. Will these be a good fit and what tire dimensions are suitable? I'm not going for a stance look but I don't want the wheels to be too far in. I'd rather have them square with the fenders. My M coupe isn't lowered yet, but will be in the future. |

yes. could use 5mm spacers front and rear though
235/35/19 and 275/30/19. shop tires by spec and not size. alot of 265's run wider than 275's. all depends on what brand and model of tire. tire dimensions are always posted on their website

Tire size for 18 would be
235/40/18 and 265/35/18 Or 245/35/18 and 275/30/18 Second size will probably rub on fenders and is quite undersized from stock

I think I'll go with 235/40/18 and 265/35/18. Or 245's in front and 275's in the rear depending on tire model. I will probably go for Michelin PSS/PS3 or Continental SportContact 5.

So I got around looking for tires for my wheels. The Michelin Pilot Sport 3's would have dimensions: 18x8.5 ET 38 with 235/40 up front and 18x10 ET 32 with 265/35 at the rear.
Also I've been looking a bit on the Pilot Super Sport. But those aren't available in those dimensions. Up front I would either have to go with 225/40 or 245/40 and at the rear 245/35 or 275/35. I don't know what's best. Or maybe I should go standard height but 10 mm wider tires all around? 235/45 and 265/40. Anyone here that run PSS with similar wheel/tire dimensions that could shime in? However I bought H&R coilovers also so the car will get lowered and I don't want it to rub. |

Last time I asked for a quote from Felgen-garage it was around 2400 euro for 18" plus shipping, customs fees, ...
In the end at my door, it was around 4000$ and canadian dollar was better than now. Send him an email, he will answer you back quickly. |

Claus at Felgen-Garage was okey to deal with, wouldn't come down in price despite me trying. Also there were some marks on the barrels on the inside (not visible once on the car though) and a small one on one lip but he blamed OZ/ACS and said they can come with those marks from production/handling. I'm a little disappointed since I paid for top notch wheels and they have some marks on them before they are even mounted. And around 2 bolt holes the paint was a bit thick, but you can only see it if you go really close. A high price doesn't always guarantee high quality, that's my assessment but I have to admit I'm picky. But overall I have to say that I'm happy with the wheels and they are worth the money. And the information he has on his website doesn't tell everything, I thought the Rennsport 1's where 3-piece (from what I had researched) but they are 2-piece (according to Claus). He only makes them 3-piece if the customer wants custom dimensions (+100€ per wheel). So don't get fooled by the 3-piece Rennsport 1 pictures he has on his website. Here's a teaser, gonna take more pictures when I have installed the coilovers. Decided to go with Hankook Ventus V12 Evo's. 235/40/18 up front and 265/35/18 in the back, fits perfect. Fronts won't rub I think, at the back it was tight with 10" wide wheels and ET32. Was about 2 mm left to the inner liner (not against the fender but in the trunk direction).

You will need a spacer in the rear. Et32 on a10" is too conservative for an m
