Default Rim / Wheels

Currently looking for some larger rims with tires to fit them without having to roll or modify my fender and i do not want to use spacers. What are the largest rims with tires that i could fit on my 318ti without any of the said mods.

I currently have the style 18 BMW rim on my vehicle i believe they are 15X8.5as far as i know I have to be honest I do not know too much about the tires or rims but the numbers that i got off the front pair are P205/60R15 and the rear pair are P225/60R15 they are the stock ones that come with the vehicle. I know that the R15 stands for the rim size.

I am currently looking at LTW Motorsports LTW-5 rims and Beyern Type 5 rims.

you need rims with an offset of 30-40, for the width, I'm not sure, but I know you can fit up to 20s without any modification or spacers

I'll sell you my rims and tires. Bought them last fall. They are tsw mondello's with kumho tires.
19x8 w/40mm offset in the front
19x9.5 w/45mm offset in the rear (3" lip)

I got no rubbing or modifacations done. They work nicely.

Or you could buy my 18x8 axis penta wheels (mesh) but those will be more expensive since they're brand spankin new. those have a 35mm offset

(the tsw's are shown in my signature picture)
