E46 17" Wheels on an E90?
Hey guys.
quick question here. I have these wheels (I think they're originally off of an E46) I need them for winter on my E90, will they fit OK? my 2006 330i has sport package with the staggered 18s. I believe the ones in the back are 8.5" wide. now, the winter setup, i believe is only 7" wide? (I could be wrong) and offset is also different between the 2. I've searched and looks like its a 47mm offset versus my 34. Are these numbers correct? Anyways, will they clear everything OK? what about cosmetically? would i need spacers to make them look right? thanks again, |

I believe those offsets are correct, so you need spacers.

Since they're only 7" wide, they should fit without spacers, but they'll sit extremly tucked in, approx 1" compared to the ET34 8" wide OEM wheel.

JUST so everyone knows..
I tried putting the wheels on my car. they will NOT work on an E90 (atleast not a 2006 330i w/sport) They bolt on.. but the caliper hits the wheel. Both front and rear wheels hit the caliper. Enough that it wont even allow the wheel to turn by hand. So, your only option are wheel spacers. However, I may just opt to buying an actual E90 wheel rather than using spacers. (I never did like the idea of spacers) |

Yes, I think if you can get some OEM e9x for the winter, that would be much better.
