Wheel Set Up Help

Ben213 · 02-02-2012, 10:53 AM

I'm looking to switch out my OEM wheels for something different. I have an e90 Pre-LCI, and I would like to switch out for some 18" wheels..maybe 19". I've seen a couple of m6 reps for sale of craigslist. but I'm not too sure if they would fit my e90.

Can someone help me out and let me know the best width, offset, and tire size for 18" and 19" wheels on pre-lci e90?

Any help would be appreciated!

I run M3 219m 18" wheels on my E92 with sport suspension. IMO they look pretty sick, much lighter than 335 OEM 18" and they made by BBS, so good quality. With E90 you wouldn't even have to roll the fenders like I had to on the back. With stock tire size the look very nice.

I figure I would have to mess with my suspension, perhaps buy some lowering springs. My fenders are already rolled..pleasant bonus.

Will I need to buy a staggered set?

I found some m6 reps that are 18 x 9 all around (with 37 offset). Will these fit?
