Hi, just wondering about this set-up's availability. I just need two wheels/tires for my '08 135i. Thanks!

Thank you for the post, bokyo1987.

We have the tires and wheels you requested available through our mail order division :coolman: Which wheel finish are you after?

Hi, Matt. I'm looking at the regular silver finish, I'm trying to match it to my current set. Also, do they ship out mounted and balanced?

Thank you for the additional information.

We have both the tires and wheels available out of our OH distribution center which makes the lead time to your door only 3 to 4 business days. We will mount and balance the assemblies for FREE prior to shipment. Here are the links...

Thanks for helping me out, Matt. The wheels and tires were well packaged, mounted, balanced, and ready to go. Fast shipping to boot!

I think they pair up quite well with my Apex EC-7s.

Hi, Matt. Do you have any wheels with the proper offset for me to be able to run 275/40r17 NT05Rs?

Thank you for your continued patience, bokyo1987.

You could go with a 17x9 +40 offset wheel, but with 275/40R-17 tires mounted, you may (stress may) have to make fender modifications. Ideally you want the offset to be around +45mm, but I'm not aware of any 17x9 wheel model in the 5-120 PCD that offer an offset higher than +40mm, without going custom. For reference, a 17x9 +40 wheel will sit just under an inch further out towards the fender when compared to your existing rear set-up.

Are you looking to maintain the mesh design?

I'm tapped out for room on the outside actually, these 1 and 2 series cars need some ridiculously high offsets unfortunately. I'm not stuck on this design if there are off the shelf ones in the mid to high +50s.

Unfortunately we do not have any off the shelf wheels with a +50 offset.

I looked at 18" as well and did not see any wheels with the appropriate offset.
