Will these fit on my ride?

[jordafella]

Winter's hopefully coming to an end some day so I'm looking for 18 inchers for my 08.5 3 sedan. On wheelfire.com I was looking at Ruff Racing wheels but there's terms I didn't quite get when speaking of the offset, it wrote offset:HPO/MED, what does that mean? And I was also wondering if they would fit with an 2'' drop up front (with or without a camber kit) and 1,5'' back. Thanks for tha info and btw the wheels are Ruff Racing 281 (18x8.5) and tires:225/40/18W

telling you right now 8.5" isn't going to work on a lowered mz3 without some body work. 7.5" is the size you want and as far as hpo/med i have no idea maybe e-mail the site and see what they say? if you are dropping 2" i would think you are going to want an offset in the range of 48-52mm to be safe 45mm may work but i would test fit with the drop already done to make sure you won't have rubbing issues...

When you say body work, you mean rolling the fenders? I'm quite new in the ''tuning'' scene so thanx helping me out. As for the body work, would it be to expensive to worth it or should I just choose a differente set of wheels.

unless you are getting a hell of a deal on the wheels i whould just get something closer to the sizes i stated above.

yeah with that wide of a wheel and lowered you may need more then just rolling the fenders
