AluFelgen CS7s on E92-help!

Guys, as a disclaimer, I have searched and have found so many different discussions, but none are answering my specific question.

I have an E92 with sports package. Are the AluFelgen CS7s going to look good with 19x8.5 ET35 and 19x9.5 ET35? I really want the 19x10 VB3 concavity, but I just like the AluFelgen low-pressure casting. Is the concavity on the rears, even with a ET35 offset going to look good? What about doing ET22 in the rear? Am I going to run into any problems with 265/30 tires rubbing in the rear?

I really appreciate it guys.

et22 in the rears should be manageable. you MAY need a slight fender roll, but thats only if you roll with fat girls.

VMR has a coupe running 19x9.5f et3x and 19x10r et22 on sport suspension

IF you have e92 ET should be 33?
Here some pics of my car with the Alufelgen with ET 35 front and ET 33 back.

enrita, thanks! I was actually going to PM you about your fitment. thanks for posting these pics!

But yes, AluFelgen stated the wheel was designed for optimal concavity at 19x9.5 ET33. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...12&postcount=7 [last sentence above the design picture]
That is what I had to make this thread!
Damn I want to order these wheels right now, but vendors are ONLY selling ET35 rears!

WHERE CAN I GET SOME ET33?

I have an original batch CS7 that was ET30. I would not do ET22. ET30 max. ET33 should be good. You could always do ET35 and run a small spacer. The pictures are on stock sport suspension and with 265/30/19 in the rear. No rubbing, even after lowered about 4mm in the rear with the BMW perf suspension.

thanks for all of the info, I really appreciate it! Talked with vendor dtmrack who is AluFelgens stocking distributor and they assured me that they currently only make ET35 rears now (which is why I couldn't find any reliable info after extensive searching).

I guess that is the route I will be going. I am sure they will soon be making 19x10s after I order these... just my luck haha. Will be putting my order in soon! I love the look of the CS7s!

Are you lowered? because with 265 back i was rubbing with ET33 with full load and some bumps. there is not much difference between ET 33 and ET35. i actually prefer to be able to fit a bigger tyre without rubbing than to have the wheel aligned.
I have now ET35 on the Advans and i will fit 275 next time.

here you can see with ET35
