No need to be confused - looks like the have the wrong ET fitment on their site. We've had these wheels on our car for over 3 years now - since the very first production wheel came out. Looks like a typo on their website.

As I said its a ET45 (a bit different then an ET40) - so much so, you'll definitely want to put on a spacer on the rear. Which is really no big deal. Let us know if you have any other questions, we're the largest stocking/distributing dealer for Velocity wheels for a reason

Hey Ron. On the verge of picking up a set with all the fixings.

So I am planning on the non-M3 set-up (40 offset front, 45 offset rear) in the staggered VMR CSL/VB3 set. That makes the rear 18 x 9.5 et 45. I will be running 255 width for now, then 265 with replacements. I am also planning on 15 mm spacers in the rear.

Will I get rubbing on my E90 Sport, with the 18 x 9.5 on 265 tires, with a 15 mm spacer??????

This makes the et 30, and pushes the tire 20 mm out from stock (according to the calculator at the top of the page).

Thanks in advance.
