They have have the same offsets as the ZCP e46 m3 wheels then 15mm spacers on the front for a flush fitment and you need to roll the rear fenders for the rear.

lol yeah, the rear e46 m3 wheels are too wide for the e36 or e46 body.. if you look around on e46 forums, you'll see that a lot of the non-m guys are running 4 front wheels.

the e90 on the other hand can fit the e46m wheels. sorry i wasn't clear earlier, i thought you were just asking about like bolt patterns and the hubcentric thing, lol.

I'm actually about to put on 18in e46 m3 wheels on my e90 335xi. 225-45s front and 255-40s rear. Any ideas if this would fit? I think i should be fine, but not 100% sure.

I been struggling with this for a while now, I have my rear fenders rolled and I tried e46 m3 19's and 18's with 40 profile tire and it rubs, the 19's rubbed a lot more than the 18's but will only rub when u take a dip or have people in the car, also it will rub like a savage on the rear passenger side because the BMW's are lower on that side to compensate for the weight of the driver.
Right now I just switched to a 35 profile to see if it works better.

About spacers, you will def need them in the front, might need at least a 20 mm. Looks more than a 15mm if you want a flush look

With a 30 profile I guess you are doing good but if you got with the 40 profile it would def rub, stock size tires for the m3 19's are 40 profile rear and 45 on front

I need to correct myself
With e46 m3 19's the rear profile should be 35
And for the 18's is 40 profile
I had 40 profile on the 19's and 18's and both rubbed when I had people in the car or hit a dip and my fenders are rolled.

I think everyone who's on 19's rubs on dips.. Just gotta snake it when u see one coming up..

My girls car doesnt. 19x10 +25 in the rear with a good roll and 265/30s and no rubbing here

They also said 19x10 +22 wouldnt fit in the back of a coupe because it will rub badly. Not so

I might be wrong but I swore you couldnt run M3 rims on an E92 because the offsets are too extreme, fender roll or not. On a E90 its not a problem as long as your rubbers are correct. Just going on what I have read many times on the wheel/tire forum.
