BMW STYLE 218 question

F06msportmia · 08-08-2011, 09:06 AM

What's up Forum!

I have 2006 E90 325i with the sports package, stock it comes with 17'' wheels and sports suspension. (all stock right now)

I was looking into getting some wheels and found these BMW OEM Style 218 they come on the 6 series. These are the measurements:

19" x 8.5", 5 Lug, 120mm Bolt Pattern, 14mm Offset (FRONT)
19" x 9", 5 Lug, 120mm Bolt Pattern, 14mm Offset (REAR)

With the measurements above will I have any issues with the INSTALL, RUBBING, or anything else etc...

Thanks for all your feedback guys... Any information will be appreciated.

The wheels are similar to 285 but these are 19" and they just look sweet as hell. I believe someone else on the forum was looking into getting these.

ET14 is too aggressive for a normal fitment.

Thanks Everyone for the feedback. I would sell my 161's but I guess this wont work. Can someone explain further why the 14mm offset wouldn't work? Thanks!

The rears for instance would stick out 29mm further than your current wheels due to the offset change. You have a lot of room back there since you have a 2006 but not THAT much room. Stick to offsets around 20 for an aggressive look that works.
