Offset issues

SpikeX · Oct 11, 2005

Okay, So as I'm sure more than any E34 owner will know, finding a wheel that has the right offset for our car (15-22mm) is like impossible.. Or you have to fork out like 1500$ US for just some rims.
I have 18x8.5 with an offset of +38mm on my car.. Is there any way of reduceing this or changing the hub or something to make it so I can fit a higher offset wheel...
I'm worried when I install my Dinan springs they are gunna cause the wheels to rub...
Any I deas?

Your factory wheels should work fine with the Dinan springs. If you want aftermarket try Discount Tire or the Tire Rack. They will answer offset issues as well.

Wait you already have +38 mm offset wheels on your car? Madness. Original car offset is +20. Honestly if you dont mind replicas (and even some reals) look at ebay. They have dozens of wheel styles for our e34's. You can also try suggested sites that Big Daddy recommended.

By the way, Dinan springs barely lower your car, from what I know.

Ya these wheels are aftermarket as is...
And I'm going for Dinan's for the fact they down accually lower my car.. I just want a sleeper look but handels like its on rails
