Hi, does anyone know if you can fit 4 e46 18 inch m3 wheels with tyres in an e46 m3?

You can put 3 across the back seat and 1 in the front seat - however you can only fit 1 in the boot (about 3-inches too small for 2).

As long as you use something like a waterproof dog sheet which covers EVERYTHING, then you'll be fine - I carried 3 in an e34 M5 with champagne leather!

Not tried, however imagine so, however do you not have a family or friend with a hatch that you could borrow .... I'd hate to load a set into my car and get home to see that a tyre had chaffed a tread pattern into a piece of accidently exposed nappa.

Yes you definitely can as I have done it. Back seats down and put the 2 front wheels in the boot, slightly offset to fit. And the rear wheels on the back seats. Took a bit of jigglying around but did get them in there. As mentioned above, make sure you have some plastic to protect your interior.

Also did the same with 4 19" CSL wheels with tyres - is that a record ??

Or simply take a rug to put between the tyre and the leather. biggrin The simple solutions really are the best.
