Original E46 Wheel Options - 2003??

[Trellis]

Where can I find a catalogue or list of all the types of alloys BMW offered as fitment to 2003 onwards E46 (Facelifts)??

anybody have any clues/links??

thanks!

[Trellis]

also does anyone know if MV2 design are interchangeable between E39 and E46?

thanks

Definitely not interchangeable with the E39 - the offsets are entirely different, and the E39 centre bores are bigger (though there are hub-centric rings available cheaply which may lead you to assume the E39 alloys would otherwise work on an E46). I've seen an E39 on E46 wheels and it looks most odd; potentially the E39 wheels wouldn't even fit in the E46 arches.

Trellis,

Take a look here:

Pick E46 in top choice box (Baureihe) and then pick the style from the thumbnails below.

Thanks MattOz and JJM - those thumbnails are exactly what I was looking for! Given the multitude of options, I'm surprised we dont see more variation on UK cars - most have one of 5 or 6 variants.

Helps me look at options for replacements for mine tho - thanks again!
