What's the offset??

VMRWheels · 07-07-2008, 06:18 PM

Since the wheels were on a 5 series before, they are most likely not going to fit. E39 chassis use very aggressive offsets front and rear. Since you have a E90, the rears may be able to fit. But the front will be very difficult. Conservative offsets for the front of a E39 are in the mid ET20s or ET15 for a 8.5" wheel. That auction ended though so...I guess I was too late, haha.

Yeah but it had 0 bids though. Perhaps the OP wanted to contact that guy and do a private transaction.

hehe! you're a smart guy Kenny

I'm waiting on him to reply with the offsets... i want BBS CH's... and at the price he's offering them it can't be beat.. otherwise i might have to buy them from a retailer!

19x8.5 ET20
19x10 ET20 ...

those are the offsets

Too aggressive. The wheel sizes are fine, but when it comes down to the offset, it's a bit too aggressive.

I know you could go with ET30 in the front with 19x8.5s, but ET20s are too aggressive--I believe they'll stick out the fenders.
With the rears, I know it's possible to get about ET20s in the rear with 19x9.5 with fender modifications and whatnot, but the 19x8.5 with an ET20 offset is too much

Yep, the fronts are too aggressive. You could do the rears with rolled fenders but it is still on the aggressive side.
