Rotiform cast BLQ will they last ?
I'm looking at new wheels for my 118D sport and want something that will be able to handle British roads and the occasional bit of going sideways but I don't fancy pays too much for temporary wheels do you think Rotiform BLQ wheels will be okay ?

Never heard of them but what's wrong with the OEM wheels you have?
Unless they are 19" from the cracking era they can handle UK roads so if you want some knock about wheels would it be cheaper to pick up a set from fleabay. Plenty of standard fit wheels people have taken off the cars when fitting something more unique available.

Don't go for any cheap wheel (reps).
Real Rotiform BLQ will last some beating for sure. They have a certain quality standard to keep up. I'd stay away from Rota's or Inovit or similar sh*t if you're going to "abuse" them. Go for real brands. A set of second hand OZ Ultraleggera's will be far beter than a set of new cheapass china rims. |

You can go lower than et43 with 8" wheels. I have et38, and still have some space left to the wheel arches. I think et35 is perfect, and that is a rather common offset for aftermarket rims.

The wheels will be spaced anyway to get a good fitment so I'm not sure what to do with the of set but my thoughts where if I get them close to stick wheels then I will have less issues with tracking and speedo errors
