Thanks for the input though.

For the E90 with ZSP, the stock wheels are the following:
Front: Either 17" or 18" by 8.0 with +34
Rear: Either 17" or 18" by 8.5 with +37
Your Volks Front 19" by 8.5 with +43
Your Volks Rear 19" by 9.5 with +45
If I put your
E46 rims on my car, without spacers, the following will happen:
Front: 15mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will RETRACT 3mm
Rear: 21mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 5mm
And that's if the e90 has the zsp package, if not, even more of a "tuck".
You can sell them to whoever, but I know what I'm talking about, just trying to help you. Check out e46fanatics, they use that, the e90 uses more of a M3 offset.
