Offset Range M235i
Hi all,
Sorry I tried looking this up, but couldn't quite find a range of wheel offsets that would fit on the M235i. I understand the OEM's are 47mm in the front, and 52 mm in the rear. Thanks |

So far the most "aggressive" I've seen is 8.5 ET35 | 9.5 ET45.
8.5 ET45 (Front) - looks to require a 5mm spacer for suspensions clearance

I ask because you had quoted me the 8.5 ET35 setup for my vehicle and am not sure if it's going to be pushing a limit or if I need a spacer from the above... |

Below are a few examples of 8.5 ET35 | 9.5 ET45..
I personally don't believe it's too aggressive, however, if there isn't any negative camber or if you decided you want to go with a meatier tire setup.. you may see some wheel poke. From what I can see 8.5 ET35 w/225s and 9.5 ET45 w/245s seem to be a safe bet. If you want to run 235s (F), 8.5 ET40 would a good choice or 8.5 ET35+some negative camber. If you want 255/265 (R), 9.5 ET50 would be choice or 9.5 ET45+some negative camber. ^^ These should get you to just about flush w/no wheel poke http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1040428 http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showt...&highlight=vmr http://photos-e.ak.instagram.com/hph...65761383_n.jpg http://photos-c.ak.instagram.com/hph...15477206_n.jpg http://photos-b.ak.instagram.com/hph...76118037_n.jpg

Aspec on ebay has a set of CSL reps that are 18x8 +38F and 18x9 +40R that I have my eye on. Just not sure about using one inch stagger when I really want a square 245 setup that will rub.

It could with the right offset/width/tire size combination

Yes, as long as you keep the rolling diameter (F & R) as close to stock as possible.

Square - Same width all around ( F and R ) - Ability to rotate tires in traditional manner - Front wheel/tire setup may sit more "flush" in comparison to the rear Staggered - With BMWs, most examples will include smaller width FRONT and larger width REAR - Ability to run larger rear tire. Provides aggressive/wide/flush look (subjective) ^ Each will also have their own pros/cons in terms of handling/performance

Can someone confirm it this would fit on my M235i?
8J ET30 on all 4 corners, 19" wheels. Stock tire dimensions (225/35R19 and 245/30R19) lowered on ST XA coilovers. Thank you in advance. |

That offset appears to be way too low to fit without heavily modifying the suspension....and even then.
