I really like the winter wheels.
The 641 as it turns out, was on quite a few of the camo cars for the past couple years. It reminded me of a bbs f1. I think it looks better than the 437.

This is great news. Shows that BMW was very conservative with wheel fitment. No wonder the rears are so sunk in the fender. You can easily stick on the ZCP E9X wheels and they should sit nearly flush without spacers! I thought BMW kept the same offsets as the E9X but it was so far inward forcing people to resort to really low to negative offsets if they wanted to fill the gap. That would limit aftermarket wheel options.

So right now I have 18X8.5 winter wheels for my F30 with 35 offset.
am I correct in thinking that I would need 8mm spacers for the front and 12mm spacers for the rear to work with the F80? I really like the winter wheels I have and spent a little extra than normal to get them, would hate to have to sell them and buy new ones but have also never used spacers. EDIT: just used the wheel calculator so it says on the rear wheels the "inner clearance is the same" but out position would "retract by 12mm" on the front wheels it says "inner clearance 8mm less" and "retract by 8mm" Last edited by Mako; 02-12-2014 at 03:07 PM.. |

Yep, we run some really aggressive wheels, so the F8X will be able to as well. |

But wow, winter 19s?? Did the E9x have those available OEM? And are the winter wheels designed differently to deal with lower temperature somehow, or is it just an alternate style with narrower wheels to allow skinnier tires? Too bad only the winter 19s are square to allow rotation, too.

With a +40mm offset on the rears you have much more possibility to go to a more concave +25 or lower aftermarket wheel... A +40mm offset means that the wheel hub mounting flange is 40mm from the wheel centerline towards the outside of the wheel. A aftermarket wheel with a +25 offset means that the mounting flange has been moved 15mm further inwards towards the wheel centerline, i.e a deeper dish/more concave wheel is made possible. |

Obviously going with out any spacers is the best option but are there are any real serious negatives of using spacers regardless of size?

Was really hoping the 641M would be 10 in the rear but that would defeat the purpose of a winter wheel
![]() That just had to be the sexiest design too |
