20" wheels look to big on E90 - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

Rje60 · 05-07-2012, 03:38 AM

anyone share some pics of their e90 20" wheels i am not sure if i want to get 20" or 19"

remmib · 05-07-2012, 07:36 AM

I think 20" wheels with a lip look pretty good on a lowered e90 like I've got.

Escort1989uk · 05-07-2012, 11:02 AM

Any pics

techwhiz · 05-07-2012, 03:27 PM

Too big.
I have 20"s on my wife's Magnum.
That wheel it too big. The e90 wheelbase is to short for such a large wheel.
Also the profile of the tire would have to be a rubber band.
19" is the way to go. IMHO

Wtflol · 05-07-2012, 03:35 PM

20" is pretty big...

Wtflol · 05-07-2012, 03:36 PM

sorry double post.

I know this is an E92 but you can kinda get an idea:

Rje60 · 05-07-2012, 03:57 PM

i have 20" super concave dpe wheels on my porsche and it loosk amazing , i just dont know how 20" dont look that good on the e90 , maybe because of the tires profile or the drop?

Rje60 · 05-07-2012, 03:58 PM

Do 19" VMR 718's fit the E90?

EYE4SPEED · 05-07-2012, 05:28 PM

It really depends on the style of the wheel and the car. Too many variables to generalize.

wheeladdicts · 05-07-2012, 07:39 PM

I dont have any pics on an E90 but these should give you a good idea...

Sorry for the big pic but this is NJ330i's setup on 20's that he posted. I think they look perfect! And remmib's car is the poster child for 20's on an e90!

20" wheels will look big if the car isn't lowered. However, if you do plan or already have the car lowered, it'll look fine!

I've seen this car around. Looks fantastic.

Rje60 · 05-08-2012, 12:22 PM

Thanks Guys! I think the 20" wheels look stunning
Now to find some Iss forged or Foged1 7 mesh being sold

techwhiz · 05-08-2012, 12:26 PM

Hi,

I still don't think the e9x is a big enough car to pull it off, but then YMMV.
I am definitely doing 19" on my e90 when the current tires wear.
Remember the 20" tire/wheel combo is going to be heavy. This will have an adverse affect because you really want to reduce unsprung weight not increase it.

BMWSOZE · 05-08-2012, 10:50 PM

Whats the price on those 7 mesh deep concave forged 1 wheels for a set, im looking for 18 or 19 inch set up in hyper silver finish like in the pics posted. I have a 2008 335I sedan, Wheeladdicts can you chime in or PM me

Rje60 · 05-08-2012, 11:02 PM

yeah , dont threadjack!!!

dont go 18" thats to small, 19 or 20"s

taranonline · 05-09-2012, 06:36 AM
