    Wheel/tire fitment check

    Hi all,

    Looking at getting a set of winter wheels & tires for my E92 335i and found a set locally:



    Owner says the offsets are ET40 front and ET38 rear, whereas the stock offsets on my car are ET34 and ET37.

    My front tires are also a little different, at 225/40/18 vs 235/40/18 on this set.

    What do you guys think about fitment? Offsets are pretty close... Perhaps a set of spacers for the front?

    Thanks, Dane. The front wheels would have been fine with a 6mm spacer, but the rears are "iffy," so I'll keep looking for a better fitting set...

    Good plan. There isn't much clearance from the factory, so making even LESS clearance isn't going to help you get through the winter; your car just won't move at all haha.
