fitment csl VB3 18s
i´m a little scared about the fitment in the front. especially between the shock/spring and the wheel. offset 40 is hard defensive.
should i better go with offset 20? is anybody here with 18s on?? please help with input and pictures

ET20 would be far to agressive. Go with the 18x8.5 ET40 and 18x9.5 ET33 - They'll fit perfectly. A 40 would work but would look like OEM tucked in.
Let us know if we can help, we can provide you with a wheel and tire package as well. |

i´m always astonish how people read and answer.
i asked about the front and they tell me about the rear. this sould be a non staggered set up. so yes i know rear is tucked in. but i´m afraid of the front. and nobody with a pic??

Hmmm? How about for a non-staggered set up? It looks to me like ET20 and ET40 are the only options for CSL 18x8.5. Do you have to go ET40 with spacers to get a decent fitment on an E90?

You could run a set of 10mm spacers to push them out for a more flushed look but it's not necessary.

For non staggered, I recommend doing the ET40 all around. The ET20 is far too aggressive for your car. You can run 10mm spacers in the rear to make it more flush with the fender as well.
