VMR Wheels on a 2007 328i

spieldawg · 03-14-2011, 09:36 PM

I have found the wheels I am going to buy for my 07 328i.

The gunmetal 18" staggered VMR V710's. I don't want to have a tire stretched over the rim, so Ideally I would like to put a 275 tire on a 9.5 inch rim, and at least a 245 up front.
What offsets would I need to have the wheel to be fairly flush with the fender? The options are 20 - 50 mm

The only reason I want to go with the 18's is to give a little more sidewall protection for the rim....

Currently I have the AZA Z-1's

and I don't like how deep the wheels sit in the fender.

any input would be greatly appreciated.

Do you want to roll the rear fender? If not, then the typical VMR ET33 rear offset is probably what you want with the 275s.

Also consider the brand of tyres you want to get. Some brands such as Michelin, Advan or Goodyear could rub with 245/40/18 on the front at full lock, and maybe on the rear fenders with 275s if you are dropped a bit.

I'm running stock springs...

I just don't like the stretched tire look. I plan on running bridgestone potenzas...

I wish I knew the offsets on the rims
I have now, I'm running a 245 on the fronts.. (sumitomo htr z3's) with no rubbing....

I am not against rolling my fenders, just need to find someone to do it

For a 245/275 combo, you'll want to go with our 8.5 +35 front and a 9.5 +33 rear. Though 245's are a hair wide, it can be done up front. 275 rears will require a slight fender roll if you plan on lowering the car.
