Hi there, my car is going so I have to sell my lovely 345 wheels.

All wheels and tyres are free from any damage, tyres have an even 6mm tread.
Standard M5 tyres 265/40 ZR 19 MPSS front, 295/35 ZR 19 PMSS rear. TPM sensors fitted.

Looking for £1300

Pictures please, thanks
Were they rubbing at the rear as they are quit a severe off set?.

[jakartakid]

The rears do rub slightly under extreme conditions, for me it happens on one piece of very bumpy tarmac (on the way to the driving range), when I have the kids in the back.

Schnitzer use the same offsets and wheel width for the F10 but fit a 285 rear tyre, there is no rubbing evident on the rear tyres, I was going to stick with them and when they came to be replaced I would have fitted 285's.Unfortunately I'm getting an M140i so these have to go. Also this wheel tyre combination is significantly lighter than the 351 wheel/tyre, fronts 5.3kg lighter each, rears 3.6kg.

@jakartakid

Tim - have you done any research on alternative 19" wheels for the M140i ?

I fancied some from an M2 - but cant seem to finf ET etc figures to give me any confidence !

Cheers, ST

I have had a look, even though I don't have the car yet! The standard BMW 19' wheels for the 1 series all have the same width and offset, I think M2 wheels are a no go as it has bigger wheel arches (unlike the M5).
If I ever have the spare money I would go for the AC Schnitzer type Viii, this is a very nice wheel which comes in 8.5 x 19 ET43 all round, they fit same width tyres as standard (225 & 245) but with this offset they would fill the arches admirably. They would of course take wider tyres as well.

My LCI M5 was wider than the F10 5 series, that's why your rears are rubbing.
The M5 is 31MM wider.

Found some nice 624M 19" on EBaY (Germany) - does ET45 front and ET52 rear sound right for the M140 i tho ?

Any iea if I can just swap the TPMS valves over from the stock 18", or best to buy a new set ?

Cheers, hope you are enjoying the M140i - much torquier than I though twould be !

They are the correct offsets for the one series. You can just swap over the tpms valves and at least you will know they will work.

Should be collecting the 140 tomorrow!

Enjoy - let me know if you can get 'Split Screen' working on the new level of iDrive (on other than NAV screens that is) ...

I've just about finished 'running-in' (being old-fashioned) .... and am very impressed overall ... esp with improved torque and fuel economy.

What colour ?

Cheers, ST

Hows it going ?

Trust you have been well-behaved in it !

I passed on those wheels ... wouldnt even offer a £50 discount .... ho hum.

Reminds me, I must get the damned ASS feature coded to 'Last Setting' - driving me mad when the thing stops at the first junction .... also thinking of getting Rear Lamps coded in with the front DRLs - and Radio off when door open ...
