18x8 et 20 and 14

Hello

I am interested to get some wheels for my E90.
The wheels are 8x18 and et 20 for front, and 14 for back.

The tyres for front 245/40/R18 and 245/45/R18

Will this fit on the car without any modifications? Or do i need spacers?

The wheels i am interested are Style 184 which are 2 versions. For M5 and M6.

Garage List
The wheels should fit fine without spacers. They will be more aggressive than the stock sport package wheels but not as aggressive as they could be.

The tire sizes are not correct though. The rears are quite a bit larger than stock sizes (1.5 inches larger in diameter) while the fronts will work. I would at least drop the rears down to match the fronts (245/40s instead of 245/45s) and then you should be good to go.

Is your E90 Pre-lci? if so these will fit without fender mods, but not with those tyre sizes. You need 225/40/18 front and rear. There is no point going wider tyre at rear, because the wheel width is the same.As for front 225/40 is pretty much widest you can use. You could add small spacer to rear if you want, but its not necessarily.

I have 17x8 et20 front and 17x8 et10 rear as my winter setup and no rubbing. No fender modifications.

Here is E91 with 18x8 et20 front and 18x8 et5 rear with 225/40/18.Says it doesn't rub, but it might with different tyre etc.
