I want to get the 18in Millie Miglia Sport Evo's for my 92 325i, but i've been hearing a lot about them bending easily. What's the deal with em? Also, would going to 18s really make the ride that much worse? I allready have 16s w/ an M3 suspension.
Also, if i did get 18s, would i have to adjust my spedo. if i used a 225/40/18? I heard that when ya go beyond the basic plus sizing that it causes your speedo to get out of whack.
Thanks
Eric

The wheels are not a soft wheel but any wheel in an 18" will be more easily bent because you don't have the sidewall of the tire to help protect the wheel. The wheels are German TUV approved and have the strength, durabilty and load capacity for the car. I have seen the wheels on the E46 in an 18" and they look great on the car. The 225/40R18 would only throw off the speedometer by about 1 mph at 55 mph. If I can help let me know. Thank you
