CSL Rims on E90

Hedges · 07-16-2008, 10:50 PM

Heya guys,

I am a nooobee sort off :P I have a e46 325I staggered CSL rims 19" x 8.5" and 19" x 9.5" running on Toyo T1R 235 and 255 , it was a tight fit on my sedan but it looks damn good with Tein springs! Now I maybe jumping into a 323I E90 with sport package and premium and all that . I was curious if these will fit and if they will fit nicely (flushed)? If not what do i need? I will be definitely lowering it as well.

Impossible to tell without information about your wheel offsets.

hmmm Yea i 'm not too sure, i'm going to guess because it's on my sedan e46 fitment i'd say +40ish?

blakjack23 · 07-17-2008, 09:57 AM

If they are 40 they will be tucked in. To be flush with those wheels you would need around a 30 in back and 35 up front. I believe some people are even running a 23 or 25 in back.

Here is my 9.5 with 30 offset.

Hedges · 07-17-2008, 10:00 AM

Hmmmmm

I think my front is good at +35, but i know the back is higher offset since it's non-m e46 fitment. I may want it sticking out abit so is there a certain mm of spacers?

blakjack23 · 07-17-2008, 10:10 AM

Again, it depends on exactly what offset it is. I think most rim offsets are stamped on the backside if you wanna see what yours is.

SV Concepts · 07-17-2008, 10:28 AM

Assuming they are velocity motoring....

The fronts are ET35 - they will fit.

The rears are ET45. They will tuck. Big time. You will want a 15mm spacer to make that work properly and sit flush. We sell spacers

Thanks

they dont look flush to me?

blakjack23 · 07-17-2008, 11:10 AM

Well they are pretty close. Like I mentioned, some people run low 20 offsets and they do sit out even more. But if you go below 30 you'll run into issues if you are lowered like the OP mentioned he wants to do. I think most of the guys with the 20 something offsets with lowered cars had to roll the fenders

Your car has a 19x8.5 ET40 and a 19x9.5 ET45 rear.

You want to do a 5mm spacer front or max I'd do is an 8mm (with bolts)

On the rear - I'd do a either a 10mm, 12mm or up to 15mm with bolts. I've bolded the ones I would do personally.

With a front offset of ET35, they will fit your future E90 flush without rubbing the fender. As far as the rear wheels, they will fit fine, however you'll want to use spacers to flush it out. I doubt you have our VB3 CSL wheels as we never produced a ET35 offset for our 8.5" wheels. However, I'm guessing your rear offset is going to be somewhere around ET45 to ET40. In that case you'll need a spacer between 15mm to 10mm. You'll be able to lower the car a bit and not worry about rubbing.

Sorry to bump an old thread but figured it was better than starting a new one ...

Maybe you can help me out Ron ... I have the same set of wheel as mentioned above ... and as far as tires I was running a 235/35-19 & 265/30-19

Now I am going to be putting these on my e90 '09 335i ... I will be lowering the car, but not slamming it ... I want to fit the widest rubber I can though on these and was thinking about going with a 255 up front with a 285 in the rear ...

Does this sound possible? Would you still recommend the same spacers as you did above?

Should I just step down to a 245/275 setup?

Tires will be Hankook VENTUS V12 EVO K110

Thanks!
