: what difference does it make to use a wheel with an offset different than the stock e-24 offset? is it a handling problem? 120mm fit is a 120mm fit.

Two different things.The 120mm is, I believe the bolt spacing. The offset is how far the wheel sits in the hub. Correct offset is important,for nine out of ten times the rear wheels are no problem. The front wrong offset, the tire or wheel will rub against the strut tower.
