wheel fitment bbs lm 19" - BMW E60 5-Series Forum

ozzy786 · 04-16-2012, 02:37 PM

Hi all, I have seen some bbs lm 19" wheels that looking to replace the 172 spyders currently on.

I wanted to know if the tyres i already have 245 35 19 front and 275 30 19 rear fit those wheels ok without rubbing issues? Also if they would look right in the arches?

Many thanks

bbs wheel spec:

FRONT 8.5JX19" ET20 5X120

REAR 9.5JX19" ET25 5X120

The tires should fit on the wheel with no problem... i've also been looking into different wheels.

Mine has the sport 19" staggered wheels and I think they are 15/20 offset. The wheels im looking at are the CSL replicas and the wheels are the same dimension but offset is 20/20.

The higher the offset, the more "tucked" into the body the wheels will be. but 5mm isnt a huge difference, im just not sure how tight things are in the wheel wells

I found these offsets for the 172wheels already on
- Front alloy wheels: 19x8.5" ET18
- Rear alloy wheels: 19x9.5" ET32

So from what it seems the rear wheels on the bbs would be quite out towards the arch and front not so much more!

Hoping this gives the bbs a more aggressive stance and not rub on the arches or anything like that.
