Hi guys,

After smashing 2 alloys on a pothole (crater) the other day, I am in the market for a new set.

The style i'm looking at come in a few sizes, just want to check that these will fit.

I have a 56 facelift 2.0.
I HAD 19" 8j et 35 rims with a drop, think about 30-35mm but this was on the car when i bought it so don't know exactly.

The alloys i am looking at are 19" 8.5j et 40 up front and 19" 9.5j et40 at the back.

Or i can get the 8.5j et40 all round.

In peoples experiences will these fit?
(I have used the search function for hours but cant find anything definitive)

Thanks
 
The standard wheels/tyres for the Alpina are 8.5 235/35ZR19 (front) and 9.5 265/30ZR19 (rear) so physical size won't be an issue as long the offsets are OK

As far as the offsets go you can use this calculator to see how much the wheel will move in/out compared to your current wheels
 
The size and offset will be fine.

Mine are the same size, and similar offset (slight more on the front)
 
Perfect, this is what i wanted to hear.

I noticed on the 'show your wheel post' or whatever its called that a few people had 9.5j on the rear, but i didn't know their offset or if they had arch modifications. One guy has 10j on the rear!

Cheers for the help, I will get those ordered then.
