E92 Offset same as E90?
Did a search, posted a couple times. I'm still looking for the answer. I have got a lot of "probably", "should be". But does anyone know the offset specs for the new E92? Maybe if someone has the specs, they cpuld put it up on the wheel calculator?

The front wheel offset is the same on both the e90 and e92. The rear wheel offset on the e90 is different from the e92 because you have a lot more flexibility in available wheel widths for the e90. Are you planning on running a staggered set up or non-staggered set up?

Just a quick question. On the E90, what are the ideal offsets u should use in the front and back for 18's and 19's staggered w/ the usual 235/265 people run?

It depends on how wide a rear wheel you will be using. How wide of a rear wheel do you plan on running? One thing you have to remember is that the height of the wheel does not affect wheel fitment that much, ie 18 vs 19. Its the width that affects the fitment more, ie running a 8.5 vs 9 front or a 9.5 or 10 rear.

Ok, what should the ideal offsets be for a 8.5" rear and a 9.5" rear? Front would be 8.5". I still don't know if I want to go Staggered or not.

EVERYONE BEWARE!!!
I have the E90 335i sedan SP and I just purchased brand new wheels and tires with the correct offset, BUT they don't fit b/c the brake calipers are way to big front and rear. According to BMW, they told me that the offset is the same from the '06 330i and '07 335i sedan b/c they use the same SP wheels. FR= ET34mm and RR=ET37mm offset. With that being said. I ordered a staggered setup. FR: 18x8.5, 235/40WR18 w/ 38mm offset and RR: 18x9.5, 265/35WR18 w/ 46mm offset. The front wheel completely rested on the brake calipers. I have red calipers and the paint was chipped off. Only 4 out of the 5 lug bolts screwed on. In the rear, the brake caliper was sooooo close to the inside of the wheel that as I spun the wheel, it knocked off all the balancing weights. WARNING: You cannot assume that wheels made for the '06 330i will fit the 335i sedan. IT DOESN'T!! UNLESS you go for a 19" setup. I'm pissed off at the supposed wheel experts b/c I explicitly warned them that the calipers are significant larger on the 335i's than from the 330i's. BUYERS BEWARE!! Try on the wheels first before you buy them. You'll be taking a chance if you're ordering from online b/c they will always say, "DOn't worry...they will fit." Just wait til wheels specifically for the '07 335i's come out. Here's my two cents. Chris

Wheels are 8.5 front ET +40, Rear is 9.5 ET +39. Running 235 in the front 265 rear. So on the E92 will they sit out a little more in the rear? If so that's OK.

Would the sport package wheels (style 189) on 2007 335i coupe fit the sport package (style 162) on 2006 330i sedan? I believe they have the same spec and offset.
