Looking to get some new wheels

ClarkGriswold · 07-01-2008, 07:06 PM

I have a friend that has some BBS RGR's off of his M3. The specs are this:

19 x 8.5 BBS RGR
19 x 10 BBS RGR

TIRES:

245/35ZR19 Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Position tires
275/30ZR19 Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Position tires

Will I have any issues getting them to fit my E90?

This tire and wheel stuff is foreign to me. Any help is appreciated.

Also, can I add the TPMS to these? If so, how?

Thanks.

Fitment will all depend on the ETs. Since they are off an M3 (E46?) I'm guessing you'll need spacers for the front, which are usually around ET 44. the rear is probably going to be an issue, because I believe M3 ETs in the rear are something like 22 or 23. With a 10" wheel and ET 22, you'll probably be rubbing.

But we can't say for sure unless we know the exact ETs on the wheels. But I do like the looks of the RGR!

Well, I looked up what BBS recommends for a E46 M3 and their specs for the RGR are 19x8.5 +35 and 19x10 +25. At those ETs, the fronts should be fine, however the rears may be a few MM of offset too aggressive. I've seen members install our 9.5 +22 on their E90s with 265 tires, but this 19x10 +25 will protrude 3mm more toward the fender and you'll be using an even larger tire. It's safe to say you'll probably need some camber or some fender rolling to get this to work for you.

Hey Clark just like Ty just stated above, you will need to do some fender work and neg camber.
