KwS 2425 Report post Posted June 14, 2019 Can you get a photo of the markings on the backside of the wheel face? That'd give you an idea of what it is 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As Kelvin suggested, what are the markings on the back of the wheel? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm glad i posted, because i genuinely thought they were either 359 or 359 replicas like my old ones with 8 segments, it was only until someone mentioned it, i realized it was 7 segments !

325_driver 422 Report post Posted June 16, 2019 Do 19's guard rub at all on e91's? planning on like 235/35 on fronts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
325_driver 422 Report post Posted June 16, 2019 Well more specifically , 18 offset, looks like those wheels are from a 5 series. and from my reading e90's look like offset's round the 30's, I can see an alpina wheel with 24 offset that will fit. Has anyone rocked 19" wheels ET18 on a e90/e91? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted June 16, 2019 Whats the width? If its 8-8.5 should be alright. If its 9-9.5 might be hard. May have to consider 225 but rare size to find i think Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm going to do a test fit, might not be that bad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted June 16, 2019 Think it will fit alright but i would hate to drive it on 19s. Car is stiff as it is and 35 profile is just asking for rims to crack or bend on our shocking roads 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
