I would like to know if anyone is running a 18x10 rim on the rear of a 2005 E46 coupe with the ZHP(performance) package? I want to change out my stock wheels for the BBS CH wheel. I know that the stock wheels are 18X8 on the front and 18X8.5's on the rear. I know that I could run 18X8's on the front and the rear. I like the look of a wider wheel and tire on the rear. I am concerned that there will be rubbing issues by placing a 18x10 rim on the rear. According to the tire rack web site I only have the option of a 18x8.5 and 18x10 BBS CH wheel. I appreciate any help and advise that anyone give me.

I've sold them before with the understanding that they are very aggressive and even with fender lip rolling you may get some rubbing. Not for the timid. A combination of more aggressive fender modifiation and more negative camber would help. Because this setup often requires more work than simply bolt-on, it will not be listed online.
