F30 wheels on an E90!

VMRWheels · 03-08-2013, 08:13 PM

That actually looks pretty cool!

Delusive · 03-08-2013, 08:37 PM

Wierd, I noticed all these threads were made from last year. I wonder who's bringing all these threads back up and why?

But to the OP your one of a kind to like OEM look.

I like the OEM look too, perhaps 10mm spacers as they seem to have a different offset and sink into the wheel arches.

exterminate that wheel gap ASAP

I really liked these wheels when it first came out on the F30's. I finally got one set!! Did you have to change the bolts since the F30 uses M14 while the E90 uses M12 bolts OP? I'll be installing mine this weekend. I think the original bolt would fit just fine right?

I think this looks great. It really freshens up the older E90 look and is aggressive without being ridiculous, like way too many modded cars are.

Some of the comments here unfortunately accurately depict the jerk mindset of some BMW drivers that causes the rest of the motoring world to despise the brand. They post like they drive.

Not bad...

These look great btw, man. I'd pick these up if I didn't have 219M wheels.

What were you original offsets? Found some 400m wheels from an f30 that I am considering buying because I'm sick of my 19's (bad roads). Not rubbing with those spacers?

wdeerfield · 05-19-2014, 12:32 PM

those wheels look great! they are an f30s version of the 189s. I would definitely rock these.

Hartge · 05-28-2014, 09:55 AM

nice

blau808 · 03-23-2016, 09:59 PM

Looks good dude. I have a chance of picking up a set of 397's for $300 to put on my e90 335xi so thanks for the pics (even though this thread is super old)

If I may ask if that F30 rims is meant for 225/45/18 tyres, what would happen if you fit in a 225/40/18 tyres on it? Will it work?

Yes

Ssopus · 01-18-2023, 01:34 PM

Exactly the route I wanted to go. Good info

Cyril Sneer · 01-20-2023, 09:20 AM

397 on E91. 225/40r18 winters. 397s come in 18x8 square fitment, which is a refreshing change from the silly 1/2" staggered fitment of 189s, 287 etc. Makes a great winter set.
