MarkyN Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Will e36 wheels [offsets] fit on a e46? Is anything needed to make them fit? Spacers etc? What do people think of 17inch alloys on a e46? Too small? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyN Posted January 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 They are the wheels am looking at mate! Nice one! I have saw some cheap, just refurbed but missing the centre caps. Are they cheap to buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albino-jay Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 They can be cheap to buy, depends on condition a newly refurbed staggered set seem to go for 4-500+ Mine were only cheap then I refurbed/painted them myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mit Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 17" alloys are the best size to have on the e46 for a balance between aesthetics and road manners. Why you'd want an older generation wheel when there are plenty of e46 or e9x wheels in 17" is beyond me though! Dr T 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mit Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 You can get split rims for the e46! Have a look at the options on realoem.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ngy Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Those bbs centre caps arent cheap. Cost me £40 for one from Germany without the bmw badge. Unless you can find a set with caps It's a pita. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
