Winter setup 8x18 Offset för E90 LCI?

Auto · 09-25-2011, 05:18 AM

Winter setup.

8x18 Front & Rear, which offset to go with?
Tires are 225/45/18.

Please post pictures if you have.

Found 8x18 ET38 but that would look a bit tucked in, right?

Thanks!

Yea, it will look very tucked in. You can easily reduced the offset by 20 mm.

So ET20 would work just fine, since the wheels are just 8 wide.

Yes, I run ET 20 rear on 8.5" and ET23 front on 8.5" and the car is lowered a lot by PSS10. No rubbing whatsoever.

225/45 tires are tall. You'll want a 225/40 all around if you are looking to go square.

18x8.0 +38 will be tucked in. You can run about a 12mm spacer for a more flush fitment if you would like.

While that offset is a bit on the low side, it should be no problem with 18X8 and 225/40R18 winter tires.

I would have to agree with Gary on this. Offset is a hair aggressive but it should be able to be pulled off with a 225.

Ok ok, but can I runt 18x8 and ET20 front and ET20 without making the car look like a tard?
