Actually, I'm not sure if it's really ideal. ET 29 is the stock offset for 8.5" E90 M3 wheels (ET31 for Competition). ET 22 is "tuner offset" With stock alignment the front tires are rotating off-centerline. I 28 is actually closer to ideal on E90 with stock alignment than E22. The farther out from centerline you go, increases steering effort and affects scrub radius etc. So while ET22 is the most common, if you can clear the extra 6mm inboard this offset is better on a stock e90 than et22. If APEX has a different idea than they can chime in.

E90 M3 Offsets
ET22 Is what Apex recommends on a 9.5" front wheel:
