19' E90 M3 wheels

Will they fit a general E90/92 or are the offsets too aggressive or as aggressive as a e46 M3?

I searched and couldn't find any conclusive answers.

I'm running stock 18" E46 M3 Wheels/Tires on a Dinan Lowered E90. Front will rub at the top of the wheel well if I aim for an absurd offset bump in a parking lot. Nothing the correct 225-40 tire wouldn't fix.

I can only hope the E90 M3 is similar and the front is about -8 mm more aggressive on the ET.

The new E90/E92 M3 actually has more aggressive offsets from the factory than the E46 M3. The E46 M3 is a ET47 front & ET27 rear. The E90/E92 M3 offsets are ET28 front & ET23 rear.

I'm an offset dummy, so what's that mean?

That means that they will sit too far out on your car and cause rubbing issues- ie they won't fit.

booooo. Not what I wanted to hear Nick. Oh well.

BTW, I was in my dealerships neighborhood and stopped to check out a e90 M3 and they are soo fucking bad ass. If I was not about to get married in a few months I'd so be taking one home haha.

I think he's trying to put E46 M3 wheels on a E90 M3 ?

Anyway to answer your question - you want a 15-25 offset 19x8.5 front and a a 20-25 offset rear on a 19x9.5 on the M3 - Thats what the current specs show.

So far I know we can get the CSL's on there if you are interested.

They certainly should but E90 M3 wheels do not fit on an E90.

However, we do offer replicas of the wheels that come on the E90/E92 M3 which are a direct fit on the non-M3 E90/E92's.

Ah now I understand. Yeah that definitely won't work wrong offsets - and you cant reverse back or fix things (like with a high offset and adding a spacer).
