Max wheel / tire size I am looking to put a set of staggered wheels on the ole ti. Are the specs below too aggressive? Has anybody done something that big with that ET45 rear offset? Front Size: 19" x 8.5 Rear Size: 19" x 9.5 Bolt Pattern: 5 x 120 Offset Front: ET35 Offset Rear: ET45 Lip Front: 1.5" Front Size: 235/35/19 Lip Rear: 3" Rear Size: 245/35/19 |
Why would you want to run staggered wheels on a ti? What a PITA! I don't even run staggered wheels on my M3. What are you using the car for? Strictly track, or is this your daily driver? |

Staggered wheels increase understeer and don't allow you to rotate the tires. The reason bmw went from 17x7.5s on the 95 M3 to staggered wheels on the 96+ M3 was because the average customer couldn't handle the oversteer. From a performance perspective, a square setup is desired over a staggered setup. |

That said, what offset would be recommended? And would you use spacers on the rear to increase the rear trackwidth? |
