The fronts are 8.5" wide, offset 35, and the rears are 9.5" wide and 40 offset, will I have trouble fitting these.

You will need adaptors for BMW fit so it will be tight for clearance

Which car will they be going on?

As long as it's Mk4 or later you should be ok, 15mm adaptors will leave you with final offsets of ET20 front and ET25 rear. It all depends on how low you are and the tyre size you're running, it might be close but not impossible.

Yeah that's right a mk4 golf. there 19's but the guy I know is selling them for £400 with two brand new tyres on the rear wheels. I've got coilovers so I can adjust to suit. Can anyone give me a link to the adaptors il need? And how much does arch rolling normally cost? I thought they were a steal at that price.

They are cheap in a way but factor the adaptors and the work needed and it soon mounts up.

What size are the tyres?
