Hey check it out guys, just picked these up for my wife's X5 and decided to throw them on just for fun. Surprisingly they fit the m3. Well it does rub but it looks so good, I might just run them for a bit until I get the proper size tires for the X5.

specs:

21x9 et 23 front 255 30 21 pirelli
21x10.5 et 28 with a 10mm spacers rear 295 35 21

see it in person tomorrow at this meet http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=225809

SHADY1 · 02-21-2009, 03:20 AM

I am sure most of the rubbing has to be coming from the rear. You better take it easy I would hate for you to hit a good dip in the back and your fenders cut your tires

. That would suck, but your M3 really looks good and take it easy on the turns in the front

Wow I have the RX II wheels on my 745Li, I was thinking on putting these on my M3. Looks pretty good Long.

Simon@RENNSpec · 02-21-2009, 03:44 AM

I had a feeling that you would put them on the M3...I was right! Might drop by and say Hello tmr!

jamesisel · 02-21-2009, 06:38 AM

Holy crap, wow! those are huge!

chris s · 02-21-2009, 09:54 AM

I guess I'll be the only one that thinks it looks pretty out of place.

Im with you on that one....

Looks too bling bling, thank god they are for your wife's X5 though... I liked the LM-Rs with spacers on your car Long! And the Work wheels too!

kmax1980 · 02-21-2009, 11:11 AM

get 'em chromed out or gold plated

tightie · 02-21-2009, 12:30 PM

keep them, they look sick.

D1911 · 02-21-2009, 12:50 PM

They look sick but they're a tad to big.

yosepp · 02-21-2009, 02:08 PM

Looks great long!

Green///Hell · 02-21-2009, 03:06 PM

Wow those are huge it makes the car look smaller

JC919 · 02-21-2009, 03:09 PM

I had those in 18" of my S4, but in 21" they look ridiculous on the M3.

spyderco10 · 02-21-2009, 04:19 PM

yeah that actually does look really good. about an inch too big though

graider · 02-21-2009, 05:30 PM

that is bad. I think even the oem 19 is already too big on the car. 18 is best.

I have the 18s and I only use em in the winter, they are gross! I think they are so ugly its unreal..the 19s are 10000000x nicer then the 18s. 20's are perfect,

Back on topic...those 21s look pretty good. they look like 20s, not too big. I thought it was gonna look worse!!

amgthis · 02-21-2009, 05:59 PM

Those are sweet! Better suited for an M5 though

Shazmonkee · 02-21-2009, 07:01 PM

That's huge!

But it does look good

Bimmer Nerd · 02-21-2009, 08:18 PM

looks way to big on an m3, x5 will be perfect math for it. MAX 20's for an m3.

TonyTone · 02-21-2009, 10:43 PM

Nice fit!
