The BimmerWorld View: This staggered wheel set for the E90 M3, E92 M3, E93 M3, and E82 1M is a direct fit with no fitment hassle or interference issues. Front wheels are 18x9.5" ET35 and rear wheels are 18x10.5" ET24. These are only moderately larger than the stock E9X M3 wheels but make a big impact with the super wide rear. Sizes and offsets have been carefully chosen to give the best fitment within the stock bodywork - no rubbing on fender or suspension*. These are light weight and strong wheels at a great price for the set!The TA5R wheels feature superior strength, light weight, huge brake clearance, and an affordable price point. The TA5R has added strength and more reinforcement in critical areas: more material in the outer lips, a closed-face hub, and spokes that extend to the outer lip. These features, plus the latest flow-forming manufacturing, have produced a wheel with a load rating of 720kg (1,587lbs), which is higher than other so-called track wheels.
Flow-forming and precise machining also produce a light wheel - 19.58 and 20.54 for 9.5 and 10.5 respectively. The TA5R has been fatigue and impact tested and exceeds SAE, JWL, and VIA standards. Flow-forming is a manufacturing process with a tighter grain structure than casting that makes the wheel stronger, similar to a true forged wheel. The superior process far surpasses older manufacturing that use a straight casting process.
The wide-V-spoke design stretches all the way to the outer lip, a key component to the TA5R's strength. They also allow tremendous caliper clearance behind the spokes. 18" sizes clear all 355mm brakes (Brembo F40, Monobloc, ST40, ST60) plus StopTech ST60 380mm kit.
Thanks to its lightweight barrel and robust face design, the TA5R stands up well against the rigors of endurance racing, as well as your average street potholes. The 18" TA5R features a load rating of 1,587lbs.

- Wide V-spoke design out to the outer lip - superior strength

Fitment Note: we do our best to display wheels that fit your BMW model, based on your model selection. Many variables must be considered for wheel fitment, especially when using larger wheels or different offsets. These variables include: suspension type and settings, ride height, tire size, bodywork changes, and alignment settings. In some cases, additional parts or modifications may be necessary for fitment that may not be listed in our catalog. Final wheel fitment and clearance is the responsibility of the customer, however, we welcome your questions on fitment, size, offset, or other wheel-related inquiries. Wheel returns are limited to quality issues only.
