        They will fit on your 318iS without spacers, but they will be far inside the wheel wells.

              thats what i thought i like the way that the wheels look pushed out to the edge of the wheel wells.

              What size and where can i ghet them?

              thanks

                  ET34 -8mm = ET24
                  My ET20 16x7.5 wheels were right at the fender, perfect, and ET24 should be good.

                  I have H&R spacers, same as those, 8mm, 2 pairs, for sale. Turner sells them for $69 each + shipping. I used them for only about a day and they are like new.(just dirtied, I can send pictures) I decided I didn't need spacers as badly as other shit. $130 shipped to let you take them off my hands??

                  Let me know.

                      I know! That's why I waited until I found the correct offset wheels before upgrading from the caps. My TSW's fill out the wheelwell perfectly, IMO!

                        I have large offset wheels which are 7.5 inch and they locate pretty close to the edge. Im actually happy that there is still room between the guard and the tyre because there wont be an issue of it rubbing when the new springs go in.

                        this is where mine sit in relation to the guard.

                        Just a little project im working on

                          Those aren't even close to the edge.
