need help with wheels install

[timd003]

I am installing 18x9 all around , and the wheels have a 45mm offset. The manufacture calls for wheels spacers, but i dont know how many mm spacer i need. Does anyone know what size spacer an e46 would call for when installing 18x9 wheels, on 235/40/18 tires. The wheels i am installing are 18x9 ADR kasai wheels. :help :help :help :help :help

18x9s is a very tough challenge. I would say probably an 35-40mm offset. You will most likely have to roll your fenders. If they have a 45mm offset, then a 8mm Hub Centric Spacer (if there is enough material to provide a hub centric spacer, otherwise somethign that is bolt specific) would be needed to give you a 37mm type offset.

If the wheel company you are buying the wheels from told you they needed a spacer I would ask them. I would say you are going to run into a prblem at the fenders as well.
