Wheel offset ?

Would a 25 offset for a M fit a non M (2003 2.5i). I'm really considering a new set of wheels, again :P

Factory 9.0" wide rears? If so, there have been a few who have posted that they have this setup and have minor rub problems (No info on tire size - non M tire/M tire sizes.) I have a 18 x 9.5" with a 43 offset rear wheel and (oem size) 255/35 tires on a sport suspension coupe with no problems. Compared to my setup, the 25 offset M wheels would move the wheels out an additional 12mm (almost .5 inch) From looking at what I have, I think that would be too much. If you're who I think you are, you're in the San Diego area? If you want, PM me and you can look at the fit of mine.
 
Thanks for info Incompatible :thumbsup:

I'm considering a set of Miro wheels, 19X 10 rear with a 25 offset. Would it work or would it be too aggressive?

http://www.z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=8634 good info and pics on this thread. If you look at the pics of the rear wheel, you can see how it sits with the factory 18x9 wheel. The Miro wheels will move outwards an additional 0.5 inches....too far. Also your 19 inch tires will be a little larger in diameter, about 0.3 inches and about 0.5 inches wider for tread width then the oem 18" 255/35 tires. No way will it work with a stock non M car.
