Question about wheels for M3P 2018

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I have a M3P and I am looking to buy 18 inch wheels as I blew out 3 tires within a week bc of potholes.

Will any brand of wheel with a 35mm offset clear the calipers?

To be specific 18x8 +35 mm or 18x8.5 +35mm

sorry don't know much about wheels.
 
Sorry I meant to reply to this thread the other day! I love the Apex ec7 wheels in 18x9.5. these are the reasons why:

they bolt directly on and clear the brakes and clear the chamfered lip on the hub, and do NOT require centering rings, even if they say they do.

The offset is perfect front and rear and you don't need spacers.

The factory wheel nuts fit in beautifully and there's enough clearance to use an impact socket if you wish.

The factory TPMS sensors fit perfectly

They are very light and very strong

They are reasonably priced.

I ordered mine from emotive engineering and they have great customer service.

The short answer is no, not all 18" wheels will clear the caliper, and they also need to accept the unique hub (there is a thread about someone who put wheels on that weren't cut for the hub and it was a nightmare trying to get them off). There are a couple of really good threads on the Driving Dynamics sub you should check out.
