I've got a '12 135i E88 and looking for wheels. Recentlky replaced the OEM run flats with Continental Xtreme 225 in the front and 255 in the rear.

Not sure I fully understand fitment. seems like I can find some wheels with that are 18" and 5x120 bolt pattern. Problem seems to be offset. Would like to do a staggered fitment for instance with the Beyern Rapp but the offset of 25 in the front won't work.

So question is if i wanted to do 8 on the front and 9 on rear what offset should I be looking at or am i better off with 8s all the way around?

I'd imagine you'd want to stick with high mid to high 40 offset

The offset needs to be right around 40-45 mm. We have a number of wheels that fit and work on the car with the 225/40R18 and 255/35R18 tires. If I can help let me know.
