ESR Wheels on 2018 430I GC
Hey everyone,
I was looking to get some help regarding fitment/ how wide I can go on a new set of aftermarket wheels I’m hoping to buy. The wheels in question are ESR CR1’s . I will attach the avaliable options. My pattern is 5x120 and I have a 2018 430i Gran Coupe. I appologize in advance because I only know the basics so that’s why I’m hoping to find out essentually which choice I should go with . I attached screenshots of a lot of the options but of course they pretty much offer probably almost everything. There’s different widths and different offsets and that’s particularly what I’m confused about . Thank you so much! |

from the size list, the only sizes you can use are 18x8.5 +30 or 18x9.5 +35. are you planning on a square or staggered setup and what size tires are you planning on using?
ESR's are cast and heavy and the lip style of the CR1 will make the wheel look like a 17", just FYI. i'd get these Aodhan AH02 instead, similar looking but way lighter than the ESR CR1. it'll still look small, though. https://www.aodhanwheels.com/collect...43630738637059 |

Thank you! Honestly my original plan was to swap my current tires on the new wheels. Right now I have 225/45 r18 all around. Would that work? Or should I just try and find a set used? It’s kinda between that and trying to get either those aodohan or Esr wheels. Thanks again.

Okay so I could get 4 of the wheels in 18x 8.5 and I’d be okay. Yeah my plan was to transfer my current tires. I’m not necessarily trying to buy new to me used tires but rather transfer my current tires that are on my stocks. Is there a way to find out what’s the biggest I can go just in general? Like the biggest wheels I can get on my car?

practical widest, 10" +45 w/285' rear, 9" +35 w/255 front, guarantee no issues anywhere Aodhan are super priced for a flow form and definitely worth spending more for. |

https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1929238 i cannot see the tire size in photos, but since the lips look somewhat exposed, it appears he ran moderately stretched on 9.5" |

i think Karlhankinson had square 18x9.5 ET35 w/ 255/40/18. i recommend that and be done with it. rotate however you desire
if you prefer staggered 225/45/18 on 18x8.5 +35 w/7.5mm spacer or 245/40/18 w/5mm spacer, front. 255/40/18 on 18x9.5 +35 rear . Last edited by alohasurftoad; 03-08-2024 at 12:41 PM.. |

I’m In this somewhat similar situation, you are. I have a 2017 BMW 430i GC, and I’ve been looking for some wheels with a like the ESR CR1 you’ve been looking in to. I was originally looking at Apex FL5 wheels but Found out they were discontinued.
https://esrwheels.com/collections/ap...achine-lip-new I am wondering if you have looked into the ESR AP1 wheels. I’ve been 👌🏿 this close to buying the sets of wheels in satin black, but I haven’t just yet since I haven’t seen them on any BMW’s or any car in general (I think they recently just released these sets of wheels). I’ve been debating on getting either of these wheels, Konig hypergram, and Enkei PF01EVO. |
