No.

Different offsets, E46 is 40-50mm offset compared with 34-40mm on an E90. With 19's you should be looking at least 45mm offset for an E46.

If they are replica wheels they may still fit,there are a lot of these wheels about in non M3 offset. However I would not recomend them as once the finish is damaged they are very difficult/expensive to refurbish,they also weigh a ton!I have a set (taken from my 1999 328Ci) which I am going to take for scrap as they are worth more this way. If your heart is set on this style the best tactic is to source four genuine M3 front wheels,these will fit.Remember you will still have a problem when they want refurbishing.

I've seen E9x M3 alloys on an E46 and i can report that they do indeed look utterly gash.
