The other option is rear CH-R 9.5J ET32 and I will have to put a 12mm spacer.

The offsets of BBS are a bit different than the OEM CSL wheels.
The front BBS CH that I have go out about 10mm compared with the standard CSL wheels....

A picture of these beautiful wheels...

I use a laser temp meter that I have (I mainly use it for my RC engines to check temp and adjust the mixture) to measure the tyre temp.

I had hoped to have gotten a set of team dynamics 9x18 all round but it seems td have given up casting wheels, so I'm told.

I wouldn't do 9.5 front what's the point, you can't fit a bigger tyre so you're just adding weight to the wheels.

Not alot probably

I mean why would BMW waste that weight with 265 Tyres and 9.5j rims on the rear when someone from CSL cup knows better.
