18x9.5 ET22 square on E91 LCI Msport?
I have an opportunity to get a set of Volk TE37s. They're square setup, 18x9.5 ET22.
Will they work on an E91 LCI Sport/M-Sport, and with what modifications? What tire sizes would be ideal? I'm not a fan of stretched tires BTW. Thanks in advance! |

Offset is too aggressive. My M3 wheels at 219M are 18x9.5 ET23 and I had to add negative camber to stop the rubbing without rolling the fenders. I also had to drop my plus size back to OEM spec, so instead of running 235/265, I am back to 225/255 for staggered setup. On a square setup, you might need to run 255/35 all around to avoid rubbing in the rear, but might have rubbing in front, or 245/35 front and back, but don't run 40 series or you will rub like crazy. Use this link to determine proper tire size: http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp Additionally, unless you add negative camber, and roll the fenders, the rears will rub.

If you're not a fan of stretched tires, I would not recommend a setup like that.
