F54 JCW Wheel Query
Hi all and greetings from the UK!
I'm struggling to get some feedback back here, so thought I'd reach out to my Clubman brothers and sisters the other side of the pond! My JCW has the OEM 18" grip wheels which I've never been a fan of. I see the stock fitment is 8jx18 ET57 (PDC 5x112, bore 66.6mm) - now I'm getting feedback from UK wheel suppliers that is hindering my ability to change wheels going outside of the stock fitment "they won't fit over the big JCW callipers" etc. I'm hoping you guys and gals can provide some feedback on what you have done - I'd like to get some BBS SR Y spokes on my clubby.. I want to stick with 18" wheels for better ride (I have read going to 19" might not be possible anyway as I have the adaptive suspension option?!?!) - currently I have 225/40/18 Super Sport tyres... ideally I'd like to go to 225/45/18 to improve the ride and "fill" the arch a bit more.
Any advice/feedback is most welcome! Picture of my Clubby below, it is a 2019 so the revised 300bhp version.... the al black alloys in my opinion make things too dark so looking at the BBS SR's in Grey/polished to brighten things up!

I have a local wheel supplier to me that can supply be the BBS wheels and seem confident ET45s will fit (worst case 5mm spacer). They are 30mins away so my plan put the order in and go down... First step take one wheel off and offer the BBS up and see what happens.

As for caliper clearance I just had it all measured and filled out a fitment sheet and sent that to various wheel comlani s to see what wheels they had which would fit and/or what scaler size would be needed.

My other go-to source where I have bought wheels in the past is Performance Alloys in the UK... and they also show fitment for the SR in 17 and 18". Hope this helps!
(Or I may misunderstand which wheels you're looking into?)
Great looking F54, by the way!

According to US-based Tire Rack, the SR wheels have enough room to fit the JCW brakes, even in 17". Also, I'm sure I remember seeing someone on here post a picture of their F54 with the 17" BBS SR wheels. I feel 90% certain it was a JCW because I made a mental note of it ( I had also been thinking about the SRs) You may just try a more in-depth search to find that person or thread here to confirm.

I'm now looking at a few others, maybe Team Dynamics or possibly the starting to think the Bola VSTs in Matt bronze could suit my Clubby well?? I have been told the Bola's will fit and waiting some details from Team Dynamics.

Did not expect such hard work to switch wheels 😂

I drove out to BBS in Atlanta to ensure they fit over the JCW brakes. Great guys to work with.
