First, let me say that it looks AMAZING with the arches and the rims. Best I've seen yet. Congrats. Second, are the arches really necessary from a functional standpoint, or just purely for looks?

You can put 19" 20" wheels with a maximum offset of 48 ET front and 53 ET back without putting on the arches. This is a BMW factory option. Personaly i like the wider look the sport wheels and arches give, plus wider wheelbase means better handling. Last edited by Paul in Norfolk; 02-04-2009 at 04:49 AM. |

I'm not following you. The offset has to do with the wheel to the hub. Are you saying that the larger wheels will actually rub against the arches and that is why you need to install larger arches? Or is it just aesthetics since otherwise the wheel will stick out farther then the bodywork and end up looking stupid?

Yes the wheels will stick out further then the bodywork and end up looking stupid,they will also spray dirt and grit up the side of the bodywork. There is plenty of clearance round the arches as they sit quite high allowing for the larger travel needed for 4X4's. Last edited by Paul in Norfolk; 02-04-2009 at 06:32 AM. |
