I will do that. Again thanks for all your help. I can't wait to get these new wheels and tyres on and hopefully move on from this drama. It's really taken the shine off an otherwise very enjoyable new car experience.

I will have a look tonight and see if I can bring the pressure down to 39 PSI in the settings as I do think 42 PSI is quite firm.

I am tempted to go for an ET30 offset to slightly bring the wheels out a touch. Seeing as it is probably going to be a permanent set up and not just a winter setup I'd like it looking a bit more flush as even the standard 20" could do with coming out a touch. I think I will definitely change...

I forgot to ask. What is the fitment like with the ET35? Is it pretty similar to the standard setup. I think the standard setup sits a bit deep in the arch.

I think my car is currently set at 42 PSI. The car doesn't like it when it drops below 40 PSI and I get warnings, but I have often though 42 PSI is pretty high. It's usually only just me in the car 95% of the time.

I will be going for the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyre so I will more than likely go for a 235/45/R18 tyre. Many people run these 18x8.5 wheels as a winter setup but how awful the roads currently are in Kent it will more than likely be a full time setup as I don't see the potholes disappearing...

Thank you for your reply. What offset did you go for on the Bola FLC? ET35? And I'm guessing 235/45/R18 Tyres? I hear many people recommending 245/45/R18 tyres.

I know this is an old post but hopefully you can help me out. After purchasing a Model 3 Performance August 2023 and suffering 5 blowouts from potholes I am looking to get some 18" wheels for my car. I am currently looking at the Bola FLC 18x8.5. I understand the whole drama with some 18" wheels...
