This might seem a daft question, but will the normal, standard fit, 18" wheels fit an E46 M3 that has been fited with 19" wheels from new, i.e. are the hubs any different or will they just be a like for like fit.

I am looking at geting a set for spares, but dont want to throw my money away if they wont fit.

Appreciate some advice on this one

Thanks

They are a straight swop - My brother has several sets of each (don't ask why - I don't know!)if you're interested i'll ask him how much for a set; I know they're all in good condition, but would need new tyres. He reckons the comfort is far superior with 18s on.

Sorry to jump in, but I might be interested in a set of 18's if the price is right.

only problem can be on the front if you have any big brake kit fitted. Some callipers werent designed to take 18 inch OEm rims

Hi Guys

Spoke to my brother today, he's got one set with good tyres, one with not as good. Could send photos if interested; bit busy at work at moment, but can send out on pallet if needed at good price. (all genuine wheels)

Again I'd be interested in the less cosmetic ones (as long as they are straight and true).

Please email me and we can sort something out also, need a few sets for the track.

Thanks, I'd be interested in the ones with the good tyres.
Can you send pics to a.coates911@btinternet.com
