White Rim

cnguyen004 · 01-22-2008, 04:30 PM

Hi,
I want to order this White Rim, but want to know few things:

Here is the spec:

18 x 8 with 40mm offset
Tire: 225/40 x 18

My car is Alpine White with all wheel drive sedan 328XI with non-sport package, everything stock:

I don't know if this is good for my car regarding all wheel drive system? Also, how is the rear wheel? Is it out to fender enough? Will the tire diameter is the same as my stock? Thanks.

Any comment is appreciated.

1) 18's are a no no
2) i think that looks hideous

cnguyen004 · 01-22-2008, 04:35 PM

I don't want 19' rim because it is bumpy and they don't have it available. Only 18'. Thanks. Please answer my questions.

I really only like white wheels on certain cars, and unfortunately most of the time the E9x isn't one of them. I love S2Ks with white wheels though on certain color cars.

I'm not feeling the style of those wheels though, especially with all the blue crap.

BTW, you should post the wheel specs in the wheel forum if you want some technical answers. Most of us tards in here just post our opinions with absolutely no technical support.

I think that the rear wheels are a little conservative though since oem 189's are 18x8.5 with a +37 offset.

If you had a championship white Type R, then these would work....

Unfortunately not on the E9X

I agree... white wheels are usually a JDM thing just like championship white paint.

Sorry, we're all not ballers like you and your fancy HRE's. The rest of us need to roll on white 18x8's.

Honestly if you are looking for track wheels, usually people will try and install the smallest wheel diameter but the wides wheel width. If your car comes with 18x8.5 stock from the factory why would you put 18x8 wheels???? If you are looking for daily driving wheels, those are certainly not it, since everyone at the stop lights will want to race you.
