All Bimmers have the same wheel offset?? - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

voltron1011 · 05-27-2005, 10:10 AM

I have been browsing Ebay for rims, and I've noticed that the E39, E36,E46, E60, and E90 all seem to have the same offset. Anyone out there know???

way way way wrong, always be suspect of EBAY.

the 5 series have a similar offset among themselves

the 3 series have a similar offset among themselves (except E30 which has a different bolt pattern)

so an e36 wheel should fit an e46 which should fit an e90, thats it. Dont even try putting a 5 series (e39, e60) wheel on an e90.

The rear wheels for the e90/e46 should fit, but they might not fit on an e36 because they didn't have as wide arches in the rear.

E36 & E46 have a 35 offset front and rear.

M3 has 35 offset front and 25 offset rear

E39 has 20 offset front and rear 20 offset rear

Also they have diff center bores.

Hope it helped
