The offsets are all wrong unless you're running all four rear wheels. I doubt the fronts would even clear your brakes.

OEM offset (I'm going by ZCP) is 19x9+31. These wheels are 19x8+47. You're talking about a wheel that sinks ~29mm deeper into the wheel well. You could just run spacers, but at that point, you're better off getting some VMR reps with better offsets.

Thanks for that. This is exactly what i needed to hear before i pulled the trigger. I just figured that since they are fitted to M's online then they would fit me

I'm 100% sure the rears will fit (albeit not as aesthetically pleasing as other options), but the fronts are iffy. I don't know how much room the Style 220M's have between spoke and caliper. I DO know that you're going to sink over an inch into the wheel well which could cause potential issues (I'm thinking more along the lines of wheel weights grazing your calipers) even if the spokes don't touch.

Whoopsies, I thought you were talking about CSL style (Or ZCP) wheels from the E46 M3, lol. My fault. My google search auto corrected to a different wheel style.

Same story, though. The offsets are all wrong.
