E24 Wheel fit - Alpina 16x7 ET 11 front and rear?
I'm looking at the Alpina replicas by Maxilite. I want to run 16x7 all the way around. The offset on the 16x17 is 11mm. Maxilite sells a staggered package with 16x8s at 24mm offset. I'd prefer to run uniform tires but want to be sure the 11mm offset will fit for the rear. With a 7" width can anyone confirm?
https://shop-us.maxilite-wheels.com/navi.php?k=46 I've got BBS style 5 15x7 ET 20 right now. Input greatly appreciated.

If your 15x7 et20 fits fine, the same offset in 16” will work fine…
The 16x7 et11 will stick out 9mm more. The 16x8 et24 will stick out an additional 1mm more than the above 16x7. (All the extra wheel width will be towards the inside compared to that 16x7). So you need to do some me outer and inner clearance measurements with your current wheels. You didn’t mention tire sizes (current and planned). That’ll be a factor for clearance too. |

Thanks. I was hoping to find 16x7 with ET 20 so I can just slap them on, but I think the Alpina were staggered though I do not know what Alpina did to the suspension back then.
