2011 e90 xDrive Wheel Fitment advice APEX ET30 18x9 F+R
Will this work?
Front: SM10 ET30 - 18x9 235/40/R18 Rear: SM10 ET30 - 18x9 265/35/R18 The official recommendation for an agressive staggered wheel setup with no mods here is: Front: SM10 ET30 - 18x9 235/40/18 Rear: SM10 ET35 - 18x9.5 265/45/18 However, the rears (18x9.5) have been "pending production" for a while now. Please let me know if I can sub the 18x9.5 ET35s with the 18x9 ET30s, and not have to make any modifications to the stock brakes/suspension/fenders? I want to go with the Satin Black wheels on a Titanium Silver e90, for the curious ones. Thanks much! |

Update. FWIW. ;)
I went with this one, in SM-10 ET30 Satin Black (my car's Titanium Silver):
E9X 3-Series Performance 18” Square Wheel Package With these tyres: Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 255/35-18 Max Performance Summer Tire I'm pretty confident that this setup will work with my LCI xDrive. |

You chose well. Square setup makes a lot more sense than staggered. These cars already tend toward understeer. This is the way.
Post some pics once they're on. |

im running the SMs 18x9 +30 all around with 255/35. no rubbing. no spacers. bc racing coilovers. stance is leveled. 0 gap in front. tucking tread in the rear.
im have a set of 5mm spacers for the front and 12s for the rear. will also be raising the rear up to 0 gap to match the front. |
