Tire fitment Question - BMW Forum

OK,, who can answer or redirect? My question is;

Will the rims from a 2005 M3 fit and function on my 2000 323Ci w/ sports package?

used: Any help would be great!

No. The rears are too wide! Your best bet would be to get replicas. Im sure someone on here would know how to make them fit but I would believe thatthe rears would require more than just rolling your fenders.

Hey, really appreciate the quick reply. Noticed about 3 pairs up for sale lately. Thought I'd check. Any replica suppliers you would recommend?

Yes. Try eBay or Bimmian.com they both sell replicas.

I will give a look. Any concerns with going from 17x7 to 18x8-9?

you won't have any problems going to the 8 width. however, with the 9 you may have to roll your fenders. depending on the offsets. if you get an offset of +38 or higher, you should be okay. any lower than that you may have to roll the fenders to prevent rubbing.
