Hello and BBS LE MANS

[Chuiso]

Hello, my name is Luis and i write you from Spain. Sorry but I can not understand very well the german and for this reason I write in english.

I have a M Roadster s54 and I want to get a 18" BBS wheels, modell RXII or Le Mans.

I prefer the Le Mans modell but I have several questions in reference to this wheels:

1. The fist cuestion is: I dont know if 18" or 19". In first moment I think the 19" are a little bit big for this car....but I am not sure. What is you opinion?
2. If I buy 18" what is better in the rear, 10x18 or 11x18?
3. If I put 10x18, what is better 265/35/18 or 285/30/18?
4. After to speak with BBS dealer, The most important question is: I have to do some modification in the front????? I would put them with bistein sprint and HR (-30mm) springs

Note: Is important to say, I dont want the wheels out of the wheelarch, I want them in the eye of the arch!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please I hope your replay asap because I have to choose the wheels this week

Hello Chuiso & welcome "on-board"

I would personally recommend 8,5x18" + 10x18" due to the lower weight compared to 19". But that's my opinion but a lot are also driving 19", what fits as well. Hereby with 19" some modifications might be necessary depending on the offset of the wheel.
At the rear axle 10x18" combined with 265/35/18 fit well at the M, due to the narrow gauge.
Here's a pic of a M with 18", 38 offset front, 22 offset rear.

Thank you for the information and pictures

After to think, I will buy 18" becausethe handling is better and 19" are so big for the z3 desing

Now, my question is: 10 or 11x18??? I prefer 11 with 285/ 30/18 because they are depper....but I dont know if they are fat for this car. After to speak with BBS, if I put 10 x18 I have to put a 10mm distance in the rear to have the wheel in the eye of the wheelarch.

I dont know!!!!!!!!!! Please help me

Luis
