Ive searched and read a lot of threads, and in the end, the question remains, can the 19" 437M wheel work on E9x M3s?

In short, Ive read the front offset is similar and the rears are off by 15mm. There is conflicting information on if its 15mm pushed out already, or if a 15mm spacer is needed.

E9x M3 Comp 359M:
Front: 19x9 ET31
Rear: 19x10 ET25

F8x Mx 437M:
Front: 19x9 ET29
Rear: 19x10 ET40

Bolt Pattern: 5 x 120mm

For me personally, I love the 359 rims, and I havent found any other rims different enough for me to change from my current setup But I do like the 437Ms enough to consider changing it up.

Lastly, I can only find pics of one 335is with 437M rims. Are there any people w 437Ms on an E9x M3? Any pics out there?? Is anyone running them on a lowered E9x M3?

Thanks so much and apologies for any incorrect or redundant info/questions

The front will be 2mm more aggressive than the oem comp wheels, and the rear will need a 15mm spacer to be equal to the oem comp wheels.

Thanks Platinum. Thats what I figured.

Anyone with this setup?

I had both style 513M and 437M on my e92 - they fit fine. Front can use a 10mm spacer and rear can use a 25mm spacer believe it or not. (since the Comp package wheels fit with 12.5mm front and rear)

The tires were too tall, though. And the 513m is a great wheel but looks very small due to the spoke design and 40 series tires. I think they would look pretty good with some 265/35r18 / 285/35r18 on the e9x, but they're selling for enough that I wouldn't want to spend that much and have to run huge spacers to make them fit well.

(I ran 12.5mm front and rear on my F80 too)
