Looks nice, but I think the LM's looks better on the E46 M3.

Since these were extremely hard to find, I only managed to find a set that was for E60/E63. Sizes are 20x9 and 20x10. Offsets in the front are ET 15 and rears are ET20.

I know I might have issues in the front, but do you guys think I'll have to do anything more to make it fit?

I know I'll definately have to roll the fenders in the front, but do you guys think I'll have to do anything more to make it fit?
that is a perfect offset. you cannot roll your front fenders since they are plastic and your rear fenders are as flat as they can be. that is one sick offset. cant wait to see them on.

Will this setup have the wheels on the edge of the fender? Aggressive like?

By perfect setup do you mean that the edge of the rim will align with the edge of the fender? Thats what I want, I want an aggressive look. I ordered 20x8.5F and 20x10R. Offsets are 32F and 20R

The extra .5" of width and the 14mm of extra offset will push out that front 20 x 9 rim 20mm over the OEM front wheels. Most probably will stick out... a lot.

For comparison, I tried the rear E46 M3 ZCP wheels in the front of my E90 M3: 19 x 9.5 ET27 vs. 19 x 8.5 ET29. According to the wheel calculator in the E90 post forum, the ZCP rear wheel was supposed to stick out just 15mm over the OEM wheel, so I thought that I was good to go. Unfortunately once installed for fitment actually the ZCP stick out around 5 mm over the fender line. It was not a good sight...

Was it tire or wheel 5mm past the fender?

I did a custom stagger set of LMs on my e36M3. Went 9.5" in the rear on 255/35 18. It took a healthy roll but they fit.

I'd look into a 20x10.5 rear to match the front track but just keep the tire ratios consistent from front to rear.

I suggest you ask Sam about the Klassen wheels they did. It was something like 20x9.5 and 20x11.5 with wheels sitting about flush with the fenders. NM, her's the link:

The wheel itself was sticking out over the fender line... it was pretty obvious to everybody (I did the test fit at the dealer) that it won't work at the fronts.

Man....seeing those pictures makes me want to put on my set of 19" LMs I have off of my e46. I was planning on selling them and getting something black...but maybe i'll just save the money and slam the ///M on the 19s.



BTW, here is a photoshop I did...kinda what 20s would look like.

I've talked to several people about this already and they said it should fit fine. These wheels were originally for E60/E63 (which should have the same fitment as the E92 M3). I've checked on the AC Schnitzer website and the signature front wheels they use for the M3 (9.0Jx20" offset 15) have the same specs as mine. Even longtran said it would work so it must lol (since he is the king of mod!)

I did try to find in 10.5 but since bbs stopped making these limited edition ones almost 2 yrs ago, you can imagine how hard it is to even find a set that actually fits. The wheels advertised on the AC Schnitzer website are 9.0 and 10.0 so it shouldn't be much of a problem since they are reputable. Plus, these are just for bling! :P

It would be a shame to pay all that money for 20" LMs and have to use spacers because they arent aggressive enough. I am so curious to see them mounted on a M3 already..
