Hey everyone,
A friend of a friend is selling a set of 19inch beyern mesh's for cheap. Only problem is he had them on his M3.
He's not sure what offset the rims are, but he said that he ran 255/35/19 in the front and 275/30/20 in the back.
Is there any possible way I can get this to fit on my 530xi? Will wheel spacers help? I really want these, he's selling them for only $500!
As usual, all suggestions, opinions, and help is appreciated.
Thanks

Any body?
Sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm new to all things BMW, and even newer to tires, rims, or any mods for that matter. I searched around for a while and couldn't find an exact answer.
Any and all help is appreciated,
Thanks

its not a dumb question....just a hard one to answer w/o knowing the offsets of the wheels.
from what i know....the M3 offset is not direct bolt on. i also believe that the center bore may be different as well...meaning that u would need hub-ring adapters (only a couple bucks at the tire shop so dont worry too much about that....BMW uses hub-centric wheels so you may need an adapter for it to fit properly).
do a quick search on the offset range for M3 wheels and that will help you arrive at an answer. there is a member or two who installed the 19" E92 M3 wheels on their E60s....do some more digging and you will find their threads...start with that wheel style number and search from there...
