OEM 19" E46 M3 wheels on E92 335is?

Hi all,

Does anyone know if the stock E46 M3 wheels, 19", will fit on an E92 coupe (2013 335is)? I believe the offsets are different, so are spacers needed in front, rear, or both? And would the type of tire make a difference?

Thanks!

To add some more info, here are the wheel and tire sizes (I believe the wheel specs are correct based on a Google search):

Front wheels: 19" x 8", Offset ET47
Rear wheels: 19" x 9.5", Offset ET27

Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25V
Front tires: 225/40R19
Rear tires: 255/35R19

Yes they will fit, but you'll want to run a 15mm spacer up front to sit somewhat flush!

And change the tyres to correct aspect ratio 225/35/19 and 255/30/19.

Ok - I was hoping to keep the same tires on them since they're so new. The M3 will be garaged this winter so I was hoping to get use out of those Blizzaks on the E92. Is there a problem if I keep the tires on there? Or would you strongly advise to get the right sizes?

I'm thinking that if I'm going to get new tires, I might as well just get a new dedicated set of wheels (either 17" or 18") rather than trying to run the 19s on the 335 in the winter. I guess I was hoping to just plug and play this tire/wheel set on the E92 with minimal / no changes.

By the way, I do have a pair of spacers which are used for the VMR VB3 19" on my M3. I just don't quite know if they are 10mm, 12mm, or 15mm.

Thanks for your help!

If it isn't lowered the bigger tire size will work, but if lowered will need to go smaller or will rub pretty bad! ECS tuning has great spacers, and also Burger tuning!

Good luck!

Sorry it took time to answer i had slight computer problems. Well i think the rear could possibly rub occasionally, because the tyre size. Front would be most likely fine with spacers from 10-15mm. Also tyre sizes affect your speedo.
