Question: M3 Style 220 Square Setup on E90?

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if I could put OEM style 220 front wheels all around my e90.

They are 19X8.5 and the offset is 29.

I am assuming they would look flush in the back, but might rub in the front?

Additionally, what kind of tires should I run. And finally, am I crazy for doing this instead of getting reps with more reasonable offsets?

That is actually a good idea. And should fit fine.

Thanks remmib. What tires would you suggest I run? 245/35/19 ?

And I would not need any fender rolling correct?

I'd probably get 235/35/19 because ET29 is a bit low in the front.

These are quite aggressive for the fronts. I would recommend running a 225 so that you are less likely to rub.

The rears will fit without a problem. You can run up to a 255 on the 8.5" rears.
