For fun I tested the summer wheels for my girlfriends E61 on my E91.

Original Style 135, 8x18 ET20
10mm spacer in the rear
235/40-18 worn out china rubbish tyres.

Rubbs a little bit in the back on bumps, would probably not rub without the 10mm spacers.

Have ordered Pirelli 235/45-18 that is going on these wheels, will also test them on the E91 before final mounting on the E61 :-D

eehgil Sorry to wake up an old thread, but would really appreciate your input.

I am about to buy 135 style with ET 20 (all 4 same et) and would like to mount them on my e90 320d with 225/40/18 tires, ive read on some Polish forum that the front might rub a bit, what do you think, you actually said no rubbing even with 235 tires?

Thanks for answer

I've got style 184 fitted on 225/40/18 tires on my E91 335d. Wheel sizes are the same ET 20 18x8 and I've got absolutely no rubbing at all lowered.
When it was on the M-sport suspension before it didn't rub either.

I've got 15 mm spacers installed in the rear and now it slightly rubs (lowered on coilovers).

Sry for gravedigging here, but I'm thinking of getting a set of style 135 wheels for my E90 320d xdrive. Found a set of used ones with 225/45/18 tyres on them. From what I have read here it shall work with 225 width and 40 profile but what about 45 profile? That will increase the overall diameter and fill out the arch a little more (12.7mm or half an inch, to be exact).

I don't know. It's quite a lot bigger.

In the original post i wrote that I would try to test fit the wheels with the new 235/45-18 tires that now are on these wheels, I'm sorry to say that I did not do this.


225/45-18 ET20 gives at total diameter of 660mm, and will give 7,5mm less clearance than the largest I have tested. But it will for shure look good :-D

My experience:
235/40-18 ET20, total diameter 645mm, worn out tires: Just quickly tested, no rubbing. Think I tested lock-to-lock. But did not test with load, or on lock with speed.

235/45-17 ET20, total diameter 643mm, new Goodyear Eagel F1 3: Used for one season. No rubbing.

By the way. Here are some pictures of my (dirty) car with the wheels I was rinning this winter. I don't thin there are many E91 in the world running these wheels
