what size offset should i get???

sorry if this has been asked before but I want to make sure i get the right size for my car..
I have a 08 E92 32i coupe.

I want to get a set of 19" bmw replicas, either the M5 wheels or CSL..

what would be a perfect size and offset I should get for the front and back wheels without rubbing?? Im also looking to lower maybe an Inch or so in the future. thanks

The correct offsets you need can be found here listed on our website for CSL wheels. The staggered fitment with a 265 size tire would be a 9.5" wheel with a ET33. The fronts would run you on a 8.5" wheel with a ET40 offset.

Let me know if you have any questions about the wheels!

For the CSL's you would need a 19x8.5 ET35/40 and 19x9.5 ET33 - Available in either Miro or VMR CSL. Tire sizes you need are a 235/35/19 and a 265/30/19 is what we recommend.

Let me know if you need any help or assistance we do have the wheels available and in-stock.

How about with 18" wheels? What is best offset for staggered and non-staggered for an E92/93?

Generally on an 18" wheel you can stay within the same width and offset specs of a 19" wheel.

The only difference is that you'll be running a 235/40/18 in the front instead of a 235/35/19 and a 265/35/18 in the rear instead of a 265/30/19 that you'd run on an 19" wheel

Basically with the same widths and offsets of the 19" wheels, you can run the sizes I mentioned as it will sit at the exact same position and the tire sizes overall diameter will be virtually the same

For the CSLs, we recommend the 19x8.5 ET40 and 19x9.5 ET33. For the M6's, you would run a 19x8.5 ET35 and 19x9.5 ET33.
