I'm thinking 10 mm front and 12 mm rear

15 mm rear maybe will be too aggressive

I think the clearance between front and rear are similar so 12mm front and rear should be fine...

Any 5x120 72.6 hubcentric spacers should be fine.... Just make sure you get extended M14 bolts of the correct length (12mm longer than std.) otherwise it will catch the internal rear hub hand brake!!

Do a very slow roll after installation to make sure nothing catches

Question: What kind of front bumper is that, and what is the name of those wheels?

Yes... it's many years later, I know.

OEM M Performance bumper, M Double Spoke 436 (factory standard for M135i in/since 2014). Both available/applicable for/to non-top models as well.

A true car only gets better (compared to what they offer since , except for M140i engine is reportedly superior to M135i ).

Thank you!

I don't agree that the 1 series has gotten better. I find the pre facelift design for the F20/21 to be much nicer than the facelift. Also, there are a lot more tuning options for the N55 compared to the B58 engine.

...and now the F40 platform is FWD. RIP.
