So, I need a solution or I have to sell this car. I am thinking I go to 18" wheels and tires. I figure that extra inch in the side wall will help a lot.
Can i just go to my dealer, buy the stock 18" BMW wheels and put them on? Will they fit? Did the sport package have different offsets or clearances?
Any help on this issue will be deeply appreciated. The dealer is useless and cannot answer the question. Hell they do not want to even sell me the wheels due to liability.
If i cannot solve this problem this is the last BMW I ever own after being with this brand since 1974 and my 2002.
Thanks in advance.
