However, going outside these specs, especially with 19" wheels can involve a little trial and error so I would like to invite members to share their experiences and show us your aftermarket wheels and/or tyres together with your details as set out in the following example.
Don't be shy now!!! Your 1er can be forever immortalized

Finally, please keep this thread free of discussion, if you would like to ask a question, please post
Discount Tyres in Worthing supplied and fitted my new winter set of wheels and tyres plus TPMS sensors, based on Wolfrace Drive and Pirelli Sottozero S3. They knew all about M-Sport brakes, so made sure that the wheels fitted before they put tyres on them.
Couple of comments: Budget for new wheel bolts to match if your new wheels are not the same grey as the originals. Make sure your fitter tries out whether the wheels fit before putting tyres on. Suppliers like Wolfrace won't take back incorrectly-sized wheels if they've had tyres fitted, even if they got the spec' wrong. The drive away will involve you getting a TPMS warning and having to reset the TPMS PSIs and temps, which can only be done while the car is moving.
Where did you get them from? they don't have the markings around the centre, i'm looking for a set exactly like this (dont want the motorsport stamping)

They are genuine BBS CH-R from rim style. They have motorsport around the centres but they are not ingraved so not as noticeable. Am thinking of selling the wheels and tyres.

Hi - wheels look really good. With the offset of 34 on the front and the rim being an 8, how does the wheel and tyre look regarding the stance? Does it protrude much when looking side on or straight down from above? Some opinions are that an offset of 35 is border line regarding how much the wheel and tyre sticks out. From the images, it looks spot on but it is hard to tell properly.
Lower offset and half an inch wider I believe.. They arent the lightest, probably similar stock M135i alloys.
