Newbie Question

Hi I recently picked up a 2011 335xi and I just lowered it with KW v1. I am planning on picking up some Work Gnosis GS1 wheels in 18's. I am planning on getting a squared setup. Will 18 x 9.5 be ok and what offset?

Thanks

Is your car E90 or E92? What kinda look you want? Are you willing to roll your rear fenders? What size tyres you want to use at rear?

Generally 18x9.5 will fit to front. Since you have coils i would say et30-27 with 235/40/18 and if you want lower offset then 225/40/18.

I think I am the e92. It is a 2011 335xi coupe. How can you tell? I do not want to roll my fenders if I don't have to. I was going to run 235/40 all the way around.

I used to have 18x9.5 et30 front and et22 rear with 235/40/18 and without fender roll or rubbing.

E92 with 19x9.5 et22 235/35/19.

In your case i would go something like 18x9.5 et30 front and 18x9.5 et20 rear. You can get same offset to rear and use spacer, if you want then you can rotate the wheels between front and rear.
