2007 335xi Wheel Size Help!

Hey guys, well i learned the hard way that 17'' Enkei J10 Rims DO NOT fit on my car due to rubbing on the brake rotor/caliper (the front, it was rubbing only a tiny bit and over time it would have broken in...But the back, when i put the wheel on the rotor was rubbing alot more, only by a few mm at most)

...So my question is, will 18'' Wheels Clear the Brakes/Caliper?

Im looking for Black Rims and Winter Tires before it starts to snow!


Thanks in advance!

It will all depend on offset and spoke design. Your best bet is to verify from the retailer that it is designed specfically for you car.

Sorry to hear you learned the hard way and sorry I couldn't give you a solid answer. I'm pretty sure there are plenty of 18" wheels out there that don't fit so I would caution you as I stated above.
