Hi guys.

I put about 27,000 miles on my original tires... and now I'm in the market for new wheels and tires.

I saw this on ebay site and pretty much fell in love with it.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ories

Now I'm a newbie when it comes to "offset" and need you guys advise. 1. Will these wheels fit??? Is 35+ off set good?2. What are recomandded tire size? I dont need to oversize. Rim size is 18x8 35+3. I think the wheels look great but how do you think it'll look in A/C??? Oh I'm not planning on dropping the car.

Thanks in advance.

::EDIT:: Here's the link to black version of this wheels...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ories

and a few pictures of my car ...

dude its WAYYY to simmilar to the stock wheels IMO... They are nice, but i wouldnt pay any extra to upgrade to them from the 3.5 wheels in your case.

that offset is acceptable.

Ya those rims are a beauty... when I have some time I'll snap a picture of them on my buddy's 330i... piano black with matched bmw blue lip

But they are pretty pricy... just an FYI if the OP is interested in the Forgestar's

Maybe it's actually "Parkles"

Or... "Lespark"

Nice size though. 18x8 +35 will be more flush than stock
