front = 18" x 8.0" et34 | PN = 36 11 6 791 998 rear = 18" x 8.5" et37 | PN = 36 11 6 791 999 these are the exact same fitment that you used on your car with the oe 197's (which, by the way, the pics of yours with those wheels have dropped off zpost. something to do with photobucket.) they do not have "bmw performance" on the lip, and they also do not have any "///m" logo. all of the 18" bmw 313's are made by RONAL, and the 19's are produced by BBS. Lots of info on these wheels can be found in the 3'er photo forum. i got mine for super cheap, ~$1300/set, through a one-time promotion at the local dealer for bmw performance parts.

I know for a 9.5, et 42 is recommended but damn I see some 9.5s with et25 that I really want. That's a difference of +0.67" (past fender)... would it be that bad??? lol

Why does everyone stick with stock tire sizes when going to 8.5 front and 9.5 rear? 225 is the MINIMUM tire width for an 8.5, and 265 seems more appropriate for a 9.5" rim.
Is it some sort of clearance issue? Obviously going from 225->235 or 255->265 and keeping the sidewall ratio is going to increase the sidewall a tiny bit (3.5-4mm), but honestly, I feel like my tires could use some more sidewall. I've got 8.5 fronts and 9.5 rears, and the previous owner transferred his stock spec tires (Dunlop Star Specs) over to them when he got them. I'm looking to get new tires, and I was planning on increasing tire width by 10mm, but I'm a little concerned by the amount of people on here sticking to stock tire specs. |

Thank you JB3. This is a treasure trove of intel on a topic that everyone wants input on. Really brings me closer to a decision on my upcoming wheel/tire aquisition.

Also, as v3.0si, what's the offset? The last owner says mine is at stock offset which I assume is 47 front 50 rear. I haven't tried to confirm this, though. I can see how 9's would rub in the front with an offset in the 30s. |

18" x 8.5" et47 = 235/40r18 18" x 9.5" et50 = 265/35r18 or 19" x 8.5" et47 = 235/35r19 19" x 9.5" et50 = 265/30r19 i didn't see whether you had 18's or 19's, so both are provided. either setup should yield no rubbing on stock suspension; however, the front tires will be fairly close to the strut tower. you'll also need an alignment.

Edit: By the way, if anyone could identify the wheels on my car, I'd greatly appreciate it. I've looked at pretty much every BMW composite wheel and it's not there. I can't find an aftermarket place that makes it either. Finding the maker would help getting specs a lot. Last edited by tarheel91; 05-10-2011 at 01:28 PM.. |
