Pretty sure the answer to my question is ''NO'' but i'm not 100% sure so here goes. Would a 9.5J alloy wheel with an offset of ET20 fit the rear of an un-lowered 2003 E85?
 
Technically it'll fit (provided the wheel nuts align), but the wheels will stick out further than the arch, and may scrub going over bumps etc.
 
Would be fine with a skinnier tyre on them.

Mine are 10j et38 and tuck under the arch of my lowered z4 fine. Although the rear camber does change a bit when lowered.
 
this is a non M with 9 1/2 et 42 so I think yours will stick out 2 cms further

So a 9.5j with 35 offset would fit perfect presumably? Found these-seems a reasonable price???

I still think they will stick out too far I have 9.5j on my rears alpine dynamic the offset is 50 with 265 x 30 x 19 tyres ,yours will stick out another 15mm if I understand it correctly ,would look wrong and possibly illegal

They seem to be 9.5s on the fronts as well?
If they are I doubt they will fit.
Couldn't see where it says offsets are 35.

I was confused aswell, so I sent the seller a message. He says they are 8.5j front 9.5j rear. 35 offset all round. Surprising how little detailed info people include on their ads.

In that case they will fit as long as the centre bore is 72.6
I have the same on mine and lowered with no issues. :thumbsup:

Ok, thanks for the help. Do you have a similar style wheel? Any photos of the fit/clearance?
 
Any fender rolling needed to make those fit?

Considering a set of CSL reps 8 in front and 9 in rear with 35mm offset. Worried about the back poking out too much and needing to roll fenders.
