e90 LCI Offset question!!!!

AKbmw · 07-08-2010, 04:27 AM

So, i just picked up a set of LM reps 19x10 in the rear with Yokohama ADVAN sports (275's), lowered on KW V1 coilovers. I am rubbing pretty badly on dips and bumps

Tomorrow morning i will take the car to the shop to do one of two things:

Pull my fenders or raise the rear a bit. (i love it low so i don't really want to raise the car unless i have to)

do you guys think a fender pull would do the job?

edit: the offset is 37 in the rear

Have you rolled your fenders?

AKbmw · 07-08-2010, 06:14 AM

Yes they are rolled but the part where the wheel well meets the back bumper is where it's rubbing

I see.
Then I guess pulling the fender some how, run 265/30 tires or raising it up is your option.

Now instead of doing a full photoshoot tomarrow I gotta try and get this fixed

If I were you, I would not mess with my fenders more than rolling them. You will ruin the car. That part of the car (rear fenders) is very hard to replace.

Sell the wheels and get proper ones for your car...my $0.02.

Just switch to 265's and sell the 275's...those are standard LC measurements, tons of people run them..

Is your offset +25 on 10" wide? Also how much camber are you running? EDIT: NVM I SAW THAT ITS SAYS +37

Hey MassBimmer, I'm trying to get rims on my car, I have an LCI Sedan. Do you know if 19x10+25 will work with 265 tires? What will it take to get no rubbing?

FrankiE90 · 07-09-2010, 12:35 AM

Akbmw try 265 falkens or t1r's in the rear/.

yamazaho · 07-09-2010, 03:23 AM

^ +1 that's what I would do.

T1Rs and Invos are good choices for rounded edges.

AKbmw · 07-09-2010, 03:35 AM

yeah i would like to get a set of 265's or maybe even 255 so i can go a little bit lower in the rear or put a 5mm on or something. i would like to sell my 275 yoko's and find a used set of some falken's anybody selling any?

For a more stretched and rounded shoulder, T1-R's are a better idea. Though the FK452's do stretch, they do run with a true sized width with a tapered shoulder.
