Winter wheel setup / spacers? - help
When I bought my F30, it already had BMW optional 20' inch wheels (8 J x 20 225/35 R 20 Y front, 8.5 J x 20 255/30 R 20 Y rear…..model Double Spoke 361)…. Im going to a square setup: Model 415 Turbines 18 225/45.
Now I don't fully understand when spacers are needed, but considering both these OEM F30 wheels do not have a lip, they are flush on the outside, does that mean they are interchangeable with no adjustments? So no spacers needed? Or does my current setup unknown to me already have spacers perhaps? Thx |

Look @ the offset/ET stamped inside the wheel or research the offest for your wheels on this site. Chances are they will fit w/o spacers. You have to consider the type of brakes as well..

BMW style 361:
F: 8x20" ET36 R: 8.5x20" ET47 BMW style 415: F & R: 8x18" ET34 No need for spacers on either setup since they are OEM for F30. But you can use spacers for looks. |
