BBS CH Question
I have a 2006 330i E90 with the stock 18" 162 style rims. I have a line on a set of BBS CH's that are the following spec;
BBS CH -front: 8.5x18, ET 35 -rear: 10x18, ET 40 I don't know enough about rims and tires to answer the following questions. I would appreciate if someone could help answer them; 1. Will they fit my car 2. What size tires will I need TIA.

Well if your car is on stock suspension then they should fit fine without any rubbing but if your car is lowered than i believe your rears might have to get rolled.
As far as tire sizes go, a lot of people run these specs with a 235/35 in the front, and then a 265/30 in the rear. but these are the sizes that will stretch your tires.

Thanks! I have stock suspension. What do you mean by "stretch your tires"?

alright, so since your car is on stock height i'm pretty sure that you wont need to get your fenders rolled and what i meant when i said "stretch your tires" is that if you decide to go with the tire sizes that i listed then your wheels will poke out a little bit from the tire

Front and rear specs look fine. No modification is necessary.
We recommend a 235/40/18 and 265/35/18 tire on those.

18x10et40 will be fine in rear you won't need to do any modification. make sure you get proper alignment after new wheels and tires are installed

They will fit onto your car without any rubbing issue, you can even put in spacers to make it more flush. The recommended tire sizes are 235/40/18 Front and 265/35/18 Rear. This set up will be the best if you want to lower your car later without having any rubbing issue. -Eddie @ Xsthetic |
