What did you do to get the front to fit?

Those must be more stretched than I realized.

nothing. running 225/35/18 tires and they fit in the fenders.
I dont think its as bad as people make out to be but i'm in the minority here. my car is lower and has a different overall stance than most others. lots of people in here lean more towards the sized of OEM or stock. i firmly believe most would choose stock 135s over my apex wheels even just so they can run 255 or 265 tires out back or they still prefer the look of 135 over anything else.
Different strokes for different folks. i like the concave wheels of the 18x10 but I see a lot of people prefer 18x8.5 et38 or et45 which in my opinion has a pretty flat face but that's the look they like.
just look up 245/35/18 on 10 inch wheel to see how it looks.

I know it depends on the tire too, as each mfr. has different sidewall characteristics. I’m with you though, concave or bust. Fitting concave Arc-8s was the whole reason I didn’t get them, honestly. I really like the 135s, but I also really like shaking things up. After 4 years in the X3, I knew the mod bug was going to bite hard when I got the ZHP.
I certainly wasn’t being critical, though. I think your car is stupid sexy, and I really want to see those wheels in person...but I’m afraid if I do I’ll end up buying some

I thought the 18x9 were only et30 or et42.
The concave look is nice but rolling and pulling the rear fenders is a turn off for most people.
