Why not try the correct section to start with

What is the offset? That is a little important for the E90

Mod's: This needs to be moved

5x120 is the bolt pattern (standard for all bmw's).
Offset is measured in mm. If offset is for a 5er it'll prob look funky on a 3er as they have different standard offsets. You may either have to have a shop shave the wheel hub or add spacers, both of which make it not worth it most of the time. Are you also positive you really want 18??
Do some research in the pictures section too and see the look your going for. Consider too that the look you like may also require you to lower your car in order to reduce the notorious gap between the fender and the tire with low profile tires. Hope that helps.

Offset is the first question that you need to ask when buying rims. I suggest you speak to your seller and ask him what the offset is. Without offset information we cannot help you, sorry.

Yes that's correct but I don't think he has the wheels on hand yet.

offset means nothing without width, make sure you get BOTH the offset and width
