anyone know the offset for the X3 wheels?
Just wondering if I can "repurpose" the volk re30s from the 3 series ...strongly considering replacing the coupe with the X3, and I would rather keep the wheels than sell them.

43mm offset, but not possible due to different roll diameter even different between old and new x3.

So I couldn't mount four 245/50/18 tires on them? That would give the X3 the same wheel tire diameter…and the sport pack comes with staggered wheels and tires - 245/50 and 275/45 tires…the offset is about 10mm more than the volks though...

So, I can never get my head round offset - will ET46 and ET48 be further out then?
The reason I ask is that they're the sizes of my M+S and Winter wheels and I'd hate to have to spend to replace all of them.

et46 will stick out more than the et48…the higher the offset number the more tucked in the wheel will be.

So, in reality both those will be further in than the ET43 of the std wheels.
