BBS RC Wheels

I was wondering if the BBS RC wheels will fit on a 2008 R56. The wheels are 17x7.5 with a 35 offset. I was also wondering if you can fit the TPMS sensors on these wheels.

Thanks
Jeff

as far as the 17x7.5 et 35, yes theyll fit perfectly.

mine are almost the same size and offset ( sadly not BBS's ). My wheels are et 38, but thats only 3mm

they'll be pretty much flush with the fender, which the only problem, especially if lowered is you cant run a real wide tire
