3 series snow tires fit 1?

Yes, no?

Maybe? Details about the tires you're referring to would make it a lot easier to answer your question.

The 16x7 steel wheels for the e90 have a different part number.

ChuckB · 03-31-2008, 03:47 PM

Nope, the offset is differant.

MadMan77 · 03-31-2008, 04:27 PM

Also, not sure that the 16" wheel would clear the front brakes.

Depends on what size snow tires you have. If they're 18", sure, they'll fit on the factory rims.

I have a set of 17" wheels/tires on my 330i. If they don't fit on the 1, I would really hate to spend another 2k on a set of wheels.

In one of the tirerack threads, they said fitment is similar to the E46, so they SHOULD fit. I have 17" wheels on my E46, and I plan to try them out if I go ahead and get a 1series.

As far as spending another $2k, the best snow tires I know of cost less than $100 each, so if you can do without spending $1600 on wheels, there are plenty of reasonable options out there.
