Got a set of 18" x 8J with a 30 offset will this be alright on the 3 Door?
Was running 16" x 8J with a 15 offset and they were alright, but just thought i'd check

they might stick out a bit far for 18's

 

I have gone for ET35 at the front and ET25 at the rear.

 

you have an 8x18 et 25 on the rear? what size tyres have you gone for then? and any arch mods?

 

I have 245/35/18's on the rear. I think the arches have been modded slightly by the previous owner.

 

excellent, how close is it to the strut?

just working out what i can get away with with my 8x18's et 33

p.s sonic boom looks like your will be fine after all

 

Unfortunately, the car is is still being prepared (250 miles away) and the wheels have just been put on by the mechanic. From what they tell me it is really close...I will see for myself when I get the car back at Central day...I think ET33 could be a problem with 245's, as does that offset not push it closer to the strut?

 

it will be closer to the strut will see if i need spacers or not (will only want a couple mm max though)

will have to have a nose at central day then

 

My mate works at BMW and has just be a pair of 255/35/18 off an M3 so I'm going to see if they fit and let you know
