Will Style M 66 Wheels fit e90?

I have a 2011 335i X-drive, M-sport and my neighbor has style 66 wheels that he wants to sell me. They are 17" wheels with Continental 235/45 tires and I don't have any more info than that...Any help would be appreciated!

Well. More info would be helpful since original Style 66 come in two sizes 17x8 et20 and 17x9 et26. Is your neighbor's set square or staggered?

If it is 17x8 et20 Front and rear, it will fit ,but i would recommend to change the tyre size to 225/45/17 at front and rear to prevent rubbing.

I have 17x8 et20 front and 17x8 et10 rear with 225/45/17 and it works without rubbing. LCI with 17x8 et20 rear would extend about the same point as my Pre-lci 17x8 et10 rear, because LCI have about 8mm wider rear track.

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...9&postcount=30

If the rear wheels are 17x9 et26, wheels would extend about 5mm more from the 17x8 et10 i have at rear.

In both cases wheels will fit, but tyre sizes might cause some rubbing, but since you have m-sport suspension you might not rub at all.

Also if the wheels are from BMW E39 you will need hub centric rings, since E39 hub bore is 74.1mm and 3 series has 72.6mm.

Can't you ask your neighbor to let you test fit/drive them?

Hope this helps.
