18x8.5 on an R53 - doable?
I'm curious if anyone has fit a 18x8.5 on a Mini. If so, what kind of offset is required as well as tire size? Stock height or dropped?

Cool. The wheelset I am thinking about woe be around a 35-37mm offset on an 18x8.5". Sonds like it would be a super tight fit to get to work.
Anyone else have experience in this size wheel?
