Help With Wheel Fitment For E46 M3

heracles97 · 12-13-2018, 11:12 PM

Hey guys,

I am looking at a set of bmw 269.
They have a nice diamond cut finish to them and thinking of buying a pair.

the specs:

FRONT: 8x18 ET47
REAR: 8.5X18 ET50

Would these fit e46 m3?
Any issue with fitment would help.

Appreciate it

Oem sizes are 18x8" ET47 and 18x9" ET26, but they do sit pretty conservative. The fitment you listed will work up front, but I would be concerned about inner clearance in the rear. Additionally, they will look terrible because of the offset. I would recommend going with different wheels. Best fitment in my opinion is 18x9" ET30 up front and 18x10" ET25 in the rear.
