Default Offset/backspace question for 07????

Looking at a set of wheels for my 07....will a 19"x8.5" wheel with +15 offset fit without any problems? Tire size is 245/45/19 fwiw. Thanks in advance!

Based on what I have read here on the stock wheel specs this setup will be somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 millimeters further out towards the fender of your car. The type of tire you choose will also move this number slightly.

Looks like a set for a 7 series bmw. Wheels should work but tires may give you a problem. CJITTY should know. He messed with stock wheels and spacers.

wheels will Work both on the front and back , What my concern will be is Brake clearance . the Hub on the wheels need to be big enough to clear the brake calipers . Usually Lower the offset less the Hub size on the wheel .

I ran 9.5 front with ET 18 and 10.5 Rear with ET 26 . back rubbed like hell over bumps fronts were fine . tire size was 245/40/20 and 275/35/20...
