MMMMMMMMMMMM!! Wonder what the original 19s would look like on a red e46 M3 ?????????

astra · 06-29-2007, 06:40 AM

red on red never worked... it should have been illegal... the only crazy colour that ever did it for me was laguna seca

Merli.... get out your cheque book.

Cheers.

Those OEM 19's look hot as well. I think I read somewhere that the offset on the E92 and 93 is different to the E90. If they would fit the E90, I might just be tempted to get the cheque book out myself.

I can vouch for the fact they are excellent wheels.

Cheers.

Not sure about offset but rolling diameter would be about the same. Remember thats 18's are standard on the e92 - 19's are optional. These should fit if the offsets are OK.

VGR00 · 06-30-2007, 09:35 AM

Thanks E93 ... I was going to ask for someone to photoshop them but I knew that i'd fall in love with them.

OK ... I'm going to ask about the offset and I'll be back to you.

Gidday vgr02 - I've done the calcs for you and here is the result:

Looks like you currently run type 195 18" wheels.

Front 18x8 et34 225/40
Rear 18x8.5 et37 225/35

The 230 19" wheels are:

Front 19x8 et37 225/35
Rear 19x9 et39 255/30

All this info came off the forum so as long as it is accurate then the results should be as follows. (I know the specs for the 230s are right cause I run them)

Don't blame me for the hole in your pocket though!

So fitting 230s to your e90 should be OK. The attached tables show the result of the wheel/tyre change.

They should fit your car too Sevey! I noticed at the Sydney meet that you could use some new rims !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daninsyd - your gonna have to pay me commission if you sell your wheels

daninsyd · 06-30-2007, 11:29 PM

lovely run-fats still attached to rims

e93 · 07-01-2007, 02:11 AM

Found a pic of 230s on an e90.

CaptOz · 07-01-2007, 03:16 AM

Looks sweeeeeeeeeeeeet.

Cheers.

VGR00 · 07-01-2007, 05:13 AM

Thanks e93 .... I have the 194M wheels but I don't know their offset.

Can anyone shed some light on the offset of these wheels ???

Regards ...
