18x10 et33 on the rear of a e90 lci

ZachLGerber · 03-13-2022, 10:18 PM

I'm looking at getting a second set of wheels and running a staggered setup

I know that a 18x9.5 et35 should work

My dad has a set of 18x10 et25 and they stick out by around half an inch

1. Will the et25 fit with a 265
2. Will the et35 fit with a 275

I think they will work with some camber, 265s and a fender roll. I don't see 275's ever working with a wheel that aggressive. I'd go with something like a Conti DWS with a very rounded sidewall for all the clearance you'll need.

I thought the e90 had wider rear fenders.

They might vs the e92 but the LCI cars have less clearance than pre LCI so I think he'll be pretty tight.

That's a good point.

This article might have all your answers.
My understanding is the LCI has a slightly wider track, and the factory wheels had a higher offset to allow for more fender clearance. (ET37 pre-LCI vs. ET39 for the LCI) This little dif

Update:
Article states LCI has 8mm wider track.

those two options will not work unless you roll and adjust camber over -3

if you want 275 rear on e90 lci you can use 18x10 et40. 18x9.5 with 275 may rub slightly depending on tire brand and type.

Well what about just a 265 with the 9.5 that should be just fine right I have a 9 et 31 in the back so a 9.5 et 35 should only stick out a few mm more than that. I have plenty of room to move out and even more is I roll the fenders.
