M3 Front Wheels

kramerica72 · 12-21-2009, 11:28 AM

I have a chance to purchase 4 M3 wheels, but they are all fronts (18 x 8.5, ET29). Can I make these work for an E90 328xi?

Thanks

I beleive you'll need spacers for the rears. Are they real M3 wheels, how did you find 4 fronts from the same place? Oh and I assume they are E9x M3 wheels?

They are OEM take-offs from a dealer--they had ordered four fronts for a winter tire set up and the customer backed out...

Yes, these will work fine...I've seen an E91 running 4 front OEM M3 18's. Put them on before you get spacers, those offsets are already pretty aggressive for an LCI..

Not aggressive at all, actually.

Stock rear wheels are 8.5 et37. These will just be out 8mm further.

What size tires are people running that use the four front wheels all the way around?

For winter? Use 225/40s
