Hi All,

Just got my new baby, a 2008 e93 (320i). One of the first things I want to mod is the rims, so have been fanatically searching for some, and managed to find this set of M3 19" Alloys:



Here are the specs:

Rear: 255/35ZR19

Front: 235/35ZR19

The rear tyres are Continental ContiSport3 one and front are Dunlop SP SPORT MAXX.

I got in touch with the seller and he thinks these should fit my e93, with the exception that I perhaps would need a couple of 10mm spacers for the front ones (10mm spacers or 10mm spacer shims)?

Can anybody give me some insight (I am a complete noob when it comes to rims, mind bmws!) and are these a good choice of wheels/tyres for my baby?

Thanks and cant wait to start adding some little mods here and there (with the help of all the experts here)

They look like they came off a E46 M3?

You'll struggle with those on the rear,the offset on the E46 M3 was ET27,which is too aggressive for the E93.

They are lovely wheels when attached to an E46 M3 but won't look right on an E93 IMO.

I suppose I will give those a pass then...

As Plan B, I was looking at these on ebay:

I guess they are all the same size, wanted a set of staggered ones (you guys reckon it would look ok on a e93?).

Im open to suggestions, my E93 is black and currently got these:

They look good but I think maybe better in a 19" size?

[hmpmarketing]

Yea, cant manage to find one on that size!

What about these:



3SDM 0.01 19"

I personally think they are an awesome wheel.

Those are beautiful! Wish i had all the dough...

Im actually thinking about dropping by BM Auto Sport tomorrow to get these:

What u think?

The csl gts are really nice looking alloys-got a set of polished/anthracite on my E91.
I will say that the finish isn't the best as its starting to corrode very slightly despite protecting them from new and generally looking after them.
Buyer beware!

Mark from BM Auto Sport just replied to me a few minutes ago, mentioned that front wheels where slightly more matt than the rears so would need a swap.

Asked if they had these then:

Looks nice too I guess
