BBS Mahle fitmet

[macinnis]

I have searched and searched and have found hit and miss info if the older mahles from the e21's fit our cars. I cant find a straight answer anywhere but have seen pics of it done.




The specs are 15x7 et13

Are these wheels going to clear the brake calipers?

Can I make these wheels work? Any input will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I may be getting a refinished set on Wednesday! I NEED ANSWERS PLEASE!!

I had 8" wheels, 0 offset and they were dead flush in the front, slightly sunk in the rear.

Compared to my setup, your proposed new offset will be 1" sunk.

google is your friend... search "offset calculator"

or use this

They fit! How much you paying? I'm selling mines

They will fit just fine. If your car is low you'll need to roll the fenders. I'd recommend going with a 205/55/15 tire.

Here's my 323i with 15x7 ET13 wheels and a 205/55 tire just to give you an idea...
