So here is a question. My wheels are ET43. If I go to an ET32, that will make my wheel stick further out from the wheel well by 11mm, correct?
I am thinking I may want to do this, but should I keep the same width tire at 8"? Will this cause any additional wear on the alignment/suspension or is it negligible?
Thanks!

Hi Folks,

My current M-wheels Style 135 are:

Front : 8JX18 ET:47
Rear : 8,5JX18 ET:50

I am looking for Alpina Classic Wheels
8JX18
5x120
ET40

Anyone tried Alpina wheels on e60 xi with Sport package?
ET40 should fit w/o any issues with 245/40/18 tires, right?

From what I have found, ET35-ET43 will work. As for the tire size, you have to check the circumference to the size you have now. Tire Size Calculator - Tire & Wheel Plus Sizing

Has anybody played around with the F10 xi offsets? I have a set of replica m6 wheels from my e60 xi that i'm wondering if they will fit on my 2014 528xi M package? The offsets are 19x 8.5 ET 35 245/35/19 and rears 19x 9.5 ET 40 with 275/30/19. Would this work on my f10?
