you can easily fit 9.5 in the rear. Dont forget that the E90 sedan uses the same fitment as the previous M3 does or even close to the 5 series in the rear... which means wide wheels and deep dishes are possible in the rear of the E90.. 9.5 is not a problem at all, 10" should be doable also.

9.5 with a +35-40 offset seems to be what the tuners are using for now. |

So the higher offset pushes the wheel inside the well more. I would like the even with the fender.
thanks may 18 x 9 all around would be OK if I did that, could I use 225's in the front and 255's in the rear with 18 x 9 all around? |

yeap the higher the offset number, the more it will push the wheel inside the well. you can do 18x9 all the way around depending on offset (18x9 40 should work) but you cant fit 225 on the front 18x9 wheels. 235 could fit with a stretching, 245 would definatly fit on a 9" rim tho |

9 x 18, 40-mm offset all around with 255/35-18?
I'd like to run 9 x 18 with stock 255/35-18 RE050A Bridestone runflats all around. The only wheel I could find is BBS RE from Tire Rack. Offset is 45-mm offset.
http://www.tirerack.com/servlet/Call...pecial=Pricing Two questions. 1. Will the BBS RE rim work with the Bridgestone RE050A runflat? 2. Will the 45-mm offset all around work? Thank you very much! GREAT FORUM! BTW, I've heard rumors of the 335i. I was going to order a new 330i, but plan to wait for the 335i (twin turbo) |

For a run flat to work properly you need a wheel with a EH2 hump
The EH2 hump is a extra ridge inside the rim that prevents the sidewall from jumping off the rim when the wheel is flat The 335i is only expected this time next year in europe |
