Would an 18" rim with +13mm offset all around cause any problems?

Thumbs up

I have an '07 530i with sport. Any downside to it?
Thanks.

Thanks yet again olli
Incidentally I am in Coventry right now as I type this. I'm flying back home today and I'm just waiting for my cab to take me to the airport. Where in the UK are you? We maybe could've met up. Perhaps next time. I walked over to a local BMW dealer and had a look around. Engine choices here are unbelievable!
Cheers.

So I guess you've been to Sytner in Coventry, which is where my car is from. Service manager and Master tech there are buddies of mine, too.
Actually at the moment I am in my office, which is about 8 miles away from Coventry. My house is another 10-12 miles from Coventry in the other direction, going towards Leicester.
