Will these rims fit my e90??

ganastas · 08-06-2010, 09:15 AM

Hi all, my stock rims are these Type 162 (Front: 18x8 ET34 225/40 R18) (Rear: 18x8.5 ET37 255/35 R18) I bought first then researched later lol. M3 e47 rims (Front 19x8 ET47) and (Rear 19x9.5 ET27) I love these rims. However, somone told me they wont fit no matter what I do??

Is this true? Or, you guys have suggestions to a tire sizing? spacers? anything to make these beautys fit mint? I need to know before I go out and buy the wrong size tires too. Look before you jump.

You will need to run a spacer up front, so it clears your suspension, but a 10-15mm spacer in the front, depending on your aggressive you want it to look. The rears will fit, might need a fender roll, but you might get away without one.

If you need help with tires Im happy to order some up for you, ive got great rates on tires right now

I would recommend about at least a 15mm spacer up front for a more flush fitment. You can even go up to a 20 if you would like.

The rears may be an issues depending on what tire you plan on using. 9.5 +27 is on the aggressive side and may require fender rolling.

Thanks for all your input!!! I thought I was going to be screwed. So spacer in the front, and what size in the rear would you recomend? I really would just like them to fit without fender rolling. And try to keep them to original tire fitment.

What size you think?

Thanks again.

I have a 19x9.5 ET25 with Sumi 275/30-19 on an E90 with sport susp...no rubbing, no fender rolling. I think you'll be okay. But like everyone else, I'd suggest a spacer in front.

a 265/30/19 should clear the rear, you can run a 255/30 also just to be safe
