[DailyStallion]

Hello everyone,

I have a 325xi that i got about 8 months ago, I am looking to find a setup that is a little more appealing to the eye. I have been looking around but need some help with the dimensions. Can anyone give me any advice on wheel dimensions, offsets, etc.??

thanks in advanced!!

What's UP DailyStallion? A typical setup for E9x is 18" or 19" by 8.5/9.5. Either Staggered or Squared. Trouble free offsets would be ET35 Fronts and ET33 Rears.

Please take a look at our line of wheels under the vendor section. Or you can PM us direct for any assistance you may need. Good luck!

Hi, sorry sorta off topic but can u recommend a safe but effective wheel cleaner brand?

I suggest you go with 18s
18x8.5 front
18x9.5 rear

Since you are running an XI tires should be
225/40/18
255/35/18

For a more aggressive look offset should be
Et: 30 front
Et: 25 rear

The Sonax stuff works decent, just spray it on and let it do its thing for about 10min. Then give the wheels a good wash.

Best way to keep your wheels clean is to give them a quick wash right when you see some dirt start to accumulate. You don't have to wash the whole car but grab a bucket and get to work on the wheels. The longer you leave the dirt on the hard it will be to get it off.

I don't understand the reasoning behind BMW having a staggered setup from the factory on an awd car. I've been looking for wheels and it's been a pain in the butt.

You don't have to use a staggered setup if you dont want to. You can run
18x8.5 with 225/40/18 in front and back if you want.

We typically recommend 18x8.5 ET35 in the front with a 235/40/18 tire and 18x9.5 ET33 in the rear with a 265/35/18 tire. You can also run 225/255 tires. As long as the rolling diameters are within 1% between front and rear, you will be ok.
