Would Rondell 0058 18" fit an E46?

Hey guys,

I saw a nice set of rondell 0058 rims for sale in my area, but they are fitted to a e39 and have a really low offset. Do any of you guys have any experience with these kind wheels on an e46?

Front: 225 40 18 8,5" et 13
Rear: 265 35 18 10" et 17

Tire sizes can be swapped, it's mostly about the wheels.


Thanks beforehand!

Ofcourse I will, sorry for not thinking about it earlier :)

Long story short, these wheels are too agressive for the E46 chassis, they are made for the E39 Chassis.

The ET and the width of the wheels won't allow it to work on E46. The ET value is too low and the width is too big for said value. For E46 you would be looking for Et values in the 30's.

Just to add, in case someone wants to try this anyway in the future with 0058s from an E39, the E39 uses a 74.1 bore instead of the standard 72.6 that most other BMWs use. So if you wanted to run these wheels and somehow make it fit, don't forget to use 72.6-74.1 hubrings.
