Sorry. I have no idea what the offset is. I purchased the wheels used. They are three piece Dinan wheels that were originally sold for E-34 M5's. Dinan might be able to give the offset. I have to use 10 mm spacers on the front.

I have a set of 17x8.5 Schnitzers that I use for track wheels. These are 13 mm offset, but I use 235x45-17 tires.

My car is lowered and has camber plates on the front, so your fit may be different.

Thanks

Is your offset 20mm? I'd like to put 245's on my 1985 euro M5. Thanks.

I run 245x40-17 Yokohama’s on my 17x9 wheels. They're in tight, but don't rub.

Hey...

What tire size should I run on 17" rims? I bought a set of 17" 540I wheels from a 1999 e39. Has anyone put these on an e28?

Thanks for the help....Mike
