Will these wheels fit the 550i m sport?.

HI Guys, I have a spare set of 19" M3 E90 Sport wheels with new PS2's on them.
The sizes are 245/35/19 fronts and 265/35/19 rears.
The fronts are the same ET BUT the rears are 9.5 * ET 27 as the 550i's are 9.0 * ET44.
This makes about 3/4" outward offset on the rear.
Will these be OK?.

The trouble with BMW service they always want the "right wheels" regardless of wether they will fit or not.

I think ac-schnitzer have ET 27 on their rear wheels for the F10. Check their homepage.

Many thanks for that.

Just checked they use ET33 on the rears with 275/35/19

I was going to drop my tyre size too 245/45/19 winters.

265 will be close but probably wont hit it unless u lower ur car or have a lot of passengers, in which case it might hit it
245 should be safe however

lets do the math
i am ET 41 with 255
u want ET 27 on 245
subtract 5 from 41 =ET 36 equivalent
so its an extra 9mm from mine
thats close, your right, it would require a real close-up photo finish .. ill check next time i see my car

I read thru this thread and it seems that the e90 m3 wheels will work on a 535, is this correct?

I really like the zcp competition wheels and just want to know for sure that it will fit with no rubbing and what tire sizes are recommended?
Do I need spacers?

Front Wheels - 19x9" ET31 (31mm offset)
Rear Wheels - 19x10" ET25 (25mm offset)
Front Tire - 245/35/19
Rear Tire - 265/35/19

Thanks
