Getting 22's and need help deciding

Rubare said:
Damn I wonder what kind of offset I'll be needing in order for the wheels to be flushed.. I didn't want to use spacer..

Thanks for telling me that..

My old Axis Ordens were et15 all the way around and they were flush to the fenders.
 
Mine isn't really all that bad as far as tucking...
I would need to trim the wheelwells (as we can't roll) and trim the black wheel well surround-thing-a-ma-bobbers (the name slips my mind right now lol)

My camera is in Dallas, so this is the best pic I have of mine (these are the 22 x 9.5 +35)...you can see the tuck...

20 x 10.5 with +43 and see the tuck...although it isn't very much in the rear there is at least 10mm of it up front...

That looks good.. I was fixing to ask you if you could post some picts up.. I looked around to see if you had a album but I didn't find any.. Thanks for the Picts Is a good form of reference.

I'm thinking of just going to a local wheel shop and see if I try on some wheels with the same measurement of the wheels+tires I'm getting and see how it'll fit.

I being contemplating the idea of having 40 series tires on my wheels.. So trying to go to the local wheel shop might help me a lot on making my decision and see how it would fit.

I haven't forgotton you.:wink: I dunno what is going on right now. I was going to trade the FX next year (hopefully going 335i), but now I might be going to school in the Med Center which will have a negative effect on my automobile plans, not to mention all my finances.

I am not sure what's going to go on just yet...I forsee visions of a Mini Cooper S for the downtown lifestyle lol. If by chance the FX has to go I'll let you know.:tup:

Rubare any decision made yet?:biggrin:

being doing my homework about... I like option #2. I'm trying to see if I can find it in a lower offset.. I talked to my friend (toncruise) he mentioned that if I really want it to be flushed without using any spacer I will need to get a set of wheel with a 25 to 28 offset.. So that's what I'm looking into bro.. Unfortunally those wheel won't come with that offset.. So I'm on the search again..

Uh the only companies I know of off hand that has shelf stock lower offsets in 22s with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern is TSW and Demoda (there are probably a lot more tough). I know for a fact Demoda isn't very expensive and has 22x9.5s with +18 offset. They are also blank wheels, meaning you can have the 5x114.3 pattern drilled in.

Something to add to your research.

Yeah those are non-existent as far as I know. The only reason I know about those two is that I looked into a weird looking TSW wheel for my FX before and looked into DeModa when I had my Titan.

I was on SSRs site and they have the Vienna Zweel in 22x10 through 22x12 in lower offsets...but the price is extreme, along the lines of HREs, IForged, Asantis, 360 Forged, CCWs, well excessive but oh so pretty!

You was totally right about demoda and tsw.. They do have lower offset..

Now I'm debating.. Wheel spacer or perfect flushed offset.. :confused:
