Just bought an 09 535i X-Drive Touring and like DaveL (also in Toronto) need rims for snows. Looking at some 17x8 ES46 from an X3 and some 17X7.5 ES41 from an M3. Anybody know if either of these will fit my car?

Is there a source for all the wheels that will fit a certain car. If i look at felgenkatalog.auto-treff.com there seem to be piles of 17x8 with mid-40s offsets. will they all work?

cheers,
andy in Toronto

 

Andy, here's the response from another forum member. It's the offset that's the tricky part....



Hi DaveL, You can find all original rims here (It?s in German but choose ?e60?, Click on the pictures. Xdrive rims are called ?Allrad? (ET43)): http://felgenkatalog.auto-treff.com/
In size 17? it?s only 5 rims that will fit: Style 122, style 138, style 243, style 277 and style 278. I have Style 243 with 225/50-17 Nokian RSI (runflat) winter tires on my care (Style 277 for summer tires). You can see pictures in my post here: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=67802


Thanks so much to the previous poster!
