Hi all,

I am a new BMW owner, '98 740IL looking to replace the stock rims/tires. I found a set of Z8 stock rims available with claims from the owner as follows:

"ALUMINUM WHEELS (2001 Z8 SPORTS CAR.) WHEELS ARE 18" X 8" W/ 20MM OFFSET FOR THE FRONT AND 18" X 9" W/22MM OFFSET FOR THE REAR. THESE WILL FIT ALL NEW 7 SERIES E-38 AND SHOULD ALSO WORK ON ALL E-31S, E-32S, AND E-34S."

Will these work on my E38? they are slightly narrower than the M wheels, 8" vs 8.5". Or should I go with a wider stance?

Your valuable input appreciated.

Bruce
