Hello all,
I was able to find a set of 18x8.5 Hamann HM2 wheels locally. The offset is 38. I know that the wheels I currently have (style 138) have an offset of 43. I know that this is measured in millimeters.

With running the recommended tire size of 245/40/18 there should not be any rubbing correct?

They are going on a stock setup 2006 530xiT

Please let me know if anyone else is running a similar setup.

TIA

Rich

If you search a bit, you'll see that the size in question is no where near the limits. Not only is the offset conservative but the tire size being stock also keeps it far from rubbing.

You should be perfectly fine.

 

Just bought the exact same wheels, but with different tires. The ones that came with my wheels are 235/35/19 vs. tirerack.com's recommended 245/35/19. The diameter is less than half an inch difference, so no issues. PLENTY of clearance all the way around so go for it if you haven't already.

 

 

This would be a good start before you just go out and start replacing parts as they are not cheap!
