I currently have 19x10 ET38 on the back of my 435i but I'm looking to go with a 10.5" wheel.

I know that a offset of approximately +ET45 is best for a 10.5" wheel for a flush fitment. The only wheel I have been able to find that meets these criteria is Velgen VMB5.
Can someone make any recommendations on other manufacturers that make wheels with these specs?

I've done some searching but most of the wheels I find are made for E9X M3 and have offsets of ET20 - ET25

Thanks in advance guys

i have seen Stance make a 19x10.5 +45 in the SC-5 model, at least it is listed on their site.

We are one of the limited companies who make the 19x10.5 in a cast wheel. Most wheel companies make a 19x9.5 or 19x10 to fit multiple cars.

This makes a big difference. The Velgen size/offset seem to have been made specifically for the F30. And at 10.5 in the rear it is really really concave; about as concave as you can go on an F30 without poking out of the fender. The 9.0 front is more concave than every other cast wheel as well (except maybe the Linea Corse).

I can attest to the on point fitment of the velgen 19's and 20's.

Put it this way, I was running Vossens 10.5? and they are ET42. In order to tuck the rear more and avoid rubbing on big bumps, I had the offsets (hub shaved) by 2.5mm making it basically a 44.5 and no more rubbing. I was told not to shave more than 3mm so I left a half mm to err on the side of caution. ET45 is the perfect offset for the f30 on a 10.5" wheel.

Awesome, you've confirmed my choice of width & offset. What size tires were you running with these wheels? TIA

Yes sir, your car is actually the inspiration behind my desire for 10.5" width in the back. Hence, why I am going with H&R supersport springs. I currently have 10" ET38 and according to my calculations, the outside of my rear wheels sit 1.65mm further out.

Have your springs "settled" any lower since you did the photo shoot? Any recent pictures of your car?

Wow, I love the stance. Are you running H&R Super sport springs or coilovers?

I am running 20s so tire specs will vary on the sidewall. I have Hankook V12 now with a 245/35 on the front (9") and 275/30 on the rear. I heard from another member if you go with the Nitto Invos you get a little more clearance in the same size tire so you can drop it a little lower.

Pic of mine from last weekends Oktoberfest.

I am running KW V2 for suspension.

Is there any chance of the VMB7 being available in 19x10.5?

[VMRWheels]

Just to throw out another option, we're releasing our Flow-Form VMR V810 in 19x10.5 ET45 in just a few weeks! Pre-orders are open
