A director at my work place has got these off his old F10 he had as a company car

The wheels are 17" with winter tyres and has asked me if i want to buy them

They have only been used 1 winter so i guess hardly worn etc,

Will they fit my e90 if there are off an F10?

Also how much roughly are these second hand? they come with alloys aswell 17" probably bog standard alloys

the wheels will fit, but the tyres may be too big... what sizes are they?

winter 17s with good tyres, id pay around £300 for them... people on here usually sell 17 winters for that much...

im guessing they will be probs 245s on front and 275 on back. i will look at them tomorrow. i bet he will say something silly like £800 though but i had look on ebay and some are up for £400 some over 1k so bit difficult to offer price

the widths seem okay but the height maybe too much... if its 245 275, the ideal profiles would be 245/45/17 and 275/40/17 - they would be okay if your car is not lowered... but winter tyres are usually around 225 or 235 (the narrower, the better)... for the f10, i would predict the sizes to be 225/55/17 all round which would be way too tall...

17" F10 wheels will have 225 section tyres, however the offset is wrong. They won't fit very nicely, they stick out a bit.

i need something to stick out as my wheels are buried in the arch anyway
too scared for spacers as its low already on standard suspension and rubbing is the worst noise to hear ever
