GUYS

I have just got some alloys size, 18" 8.5j fronts, 9.5jj rears with an offset of 35 all round, will these fit onto my bmw 320 ci m sport without causing any rubbing ect ?

Any help on this would be great.

I currently have fronts et 20 rears et 32.

Wheels 18 x 8 front 18 x 9 rears.

There is plenty of room between suspension and wheel, but I'm lowered -100mm front and -85mm rear and I get arch rub even with stretched tyres under heavy cornering.

But if your not going silly low, you should be fine mate

Thanks Gav,i will try and fit the rears first to check the clearance and my rear tyres are slightly stretched aswell, thanks for your reply.

Im pretty sure that BMW offset is 35-42 so you shouldnt have an probs,let us know and post some pics of the newness :)

Had the rears fitted today but viewing them from the rear at the bottom of the wheel arch there seemed to be a 2 inch gap from tyre to wheel arch so the tyre was sticking out this much ? which i am sure could be against the law ??

Nope that's fine long as the tread of the tyre isn't sticking out more than top of arch

My wheels from rear
