To answer your question, I got the Stern ST-1 "Beast". Beautiful wheels...check it out (http://www.need4speedmotors.com/inde...OD&ProdID=237). In the FR (18x8.5/ET+38) it has a 2.25" lip and the RR (18x9.5/ET+46) has a 3" lip. If anyone has a 330i, it would be a perfect fit. The brake calipers on the 335i rub in the inside of the wheel. ANY 330i BUYERS??? The UPS guy is picking it up by 6pm tomorrow...you'll got til then to decide. $1500 with tires mounted and balanced. You pay for shipping (live in VA). Comes w/ top in the line FALKEN 512 All-Season UHP 235/40Z18 and 265/35Z18s. iF I can't use them, maybe someone else can use them on their 330i E90. Chris

When you click on the web address I submitted above, scroll down on "Manufacturer" and select STERN. Then click on the ST-1 Face III Beast picture.

The front break for E92 is 13.7 and rear is 13.2 so the wheel sets from E92 335 will fit on E90 (F & R is 11.2 ) but other way around.

To sum it all up, THERE IS a difference.

OK, What is the exact offset of the E92 rear?? Still looking for an answer! There are companies making and offering wheels already saying they will fit, yet no one has said what the rear offset is!!! If someone would just post it we can all use the calculator on this page and stop asking again and again. Someone with the tech knowledge please post this info? tirerack? Moor alloys? anyone? |

That said - yeah, it seems insane that we don't have offsets for any of the stock E92 wheels yet. There is a nice thread at the top of the page that includes all of the E90 offsets. But the thread for the E92s has none. And Google searches produce nothing. Its like its a giant secret or something. |

Yeah, really, come on someone!
I'll be more specific: What is the offset of the stock rear wheels 8.5" sport wheel on the E92?! Last edited by JIMD1709; 12-14-2006 at 10:40 AM.. |

Offset for E92/93
I've inquired to several wheel vendors and to sum up their advice it is:
Front, use 30-35 offset Rear, use a 35-45 offset I have seen a lot of references to offsets as low as 22 in the rear but I also understand this may result in some rubbing. I hope someone can confirm the offset of the OEM wheels.

Optimum would be 30 offset. The lowest you should run on the E90 is 22 offset. 20mm might work depending on the wide the wheels will be and also the tires used.

..question is not as simple as you think as there are many technical variables-wheel design, lip versus concavity, sizes of brake calipers and rotors, suspension camber angles, wheel offset, tyre cross-sectional width, tyre shoulder design(rounded vs. square) etc .etc. not to mention the 'what I like' subjective factor. Factory specs are on 18s: 34 o/s front with 18X8 and 37 o/s rear with 18x8.5.. on my e90 I have 18x8.5 with 40 o/s as this gives me similar steering dynamics as the factory setup which I don't want to change; rear is 18x9.5 30 o/s.

Same OEM wheel offset on the e92 as the e90. But the e92 has a little less room at the rear.

Not entirely true.. the OEM rims may come with similar offsets in a particular size e.g. 16x7' rims with 34 o/s is a different configuration than an 18x8' rim with 34 o/s but that does not mean the offset specs are the same. Read my note again, maybe I was not clear enough..in experiments done the e92 and e90 have different offset fittings depending on <variables> as in my note..
don't want an argument so if you still hold fast to your belief we'll agree to disagree.. |

All OEM 17" for the e90 are the same offset as the OEM 17" for the e92. And all OEM 18" for the e90 are the same offset as the OEM 18" for the e92. And its the same for OEM 19". BTW. I even saw an e92 with OEM 16" today.
