Any reason not to buy 18x10 et25

Jim1985 · 06-25-2015, 05:55 PM

Looking at a set of wheels: 18x8.5 et30 and 18x10 et25. I'll be fitting my current 225 & 255 tyres for the near future and then swapping to probably 235/265 at least and a larger meatier sidewall. Car is a pre LCI e90 335d. M sport, standard sports suspension, will be changing to Bilstein B12 kit and lowering perches in the next couple of months.

Will I have any issues?

With 255/35/18 and m-sport suspension, you probably wont have issues, but once you lower it and change to 265/35/18, it might rub. With fender roll to rear you will be fine in any case. Front is not problem at all.

That was my plan! Thanks buddy. I knew the fronts would be fine.

i have 18X10 ET25 265/35 REARS on e90 LCI fenders rolled, dropped i rub occasionally

you have pre lci so you might be able to run 265/35 rears with no issues.

What wheel is that ? Apex with center hub covers ? Looks good!

Jim1985 · 07-19-2015, 10:20 AM

Thanks- I wish they were Apex! They're BBS RC replicas from CM Wheels. I wouldn't normally go for replicas but these ones are JWL and TUV approved and relatively light too.
