335i vb3's to my m - offsets?

hey guys,

I know this is a very noob question so I'm strapping on my flame suit as I type this but I haven't had any experience with swapping wheels between cars that need different offsets soooooo...

Current e92 335i wheels:VMR vb3's
Front: 19 x 8.5 (235/35/19) +40
Rear: 19 x 10 (265/30/19) +38

what spacers should I run to get a flush fit with the m3 w/o any rolling?

Thanks!

i believe the front would at least need a 18mm spacer? and the back at least a 13mm spacer and you may still not get flush fitment? correct me if im wrong but it may just be better to buy another set of those in m3 fitment

for the front you need to find 25mm spacers
for the rear you need to find 23mm spacers.

I think you should sell your rims and get correct offset spacers. The spacers which you require is a little bit too thick. You might get vibration on high speeds.

Those offsets are waaaaaaay off the mark...

You really need to sell these wheels, and just buy another set for the M3.

bummer - thanks guys. I was hoping to save some cash but it looks like I'll just have to get some new rims.

If you are looking for an aggressive setup you can run the following:

9.5 +22 front with 265
10 +25 rear with 295

EAS's M3 is currently running this setup on their E92 M3.
