Help with wheels

6speedGaren · 06-11-2009, 10:48 AM

Whats up guys, I need an advice on 1series wheels. Someone offering me a set of wheels off 135 style 264, I wanted to know if they would fit on my e90 3series. The size and offset is:
Fronts are 7.5 x 18 et 49
Rears are 8.5 x 18 et 52
Are these original set or could they be knock offs

Thanks
Here is a pic

1 series wheels are for one series. They have pretty high offsets, and if you use them they would just look really funny. The wheels would be too far in. Try getting wheels that fit 3 series.

Thanks Ghost, talking to the seller I felt the same way, but wanted to make sure.
Thanks again

1 series offsets are definitely very high compared to E90's. If you are looking for a flush fitment, you may be spending more money on spacers then the wheels. :P

You might also want to watch out for clearance issues with shock bodies and suspension arms.
