Will e93 335i stock 230 wheels fit on a Z4

Can I put my stock 19" 230's from my 335i e93 on my '06 Z4 Roadster or will I have issues? I know they're the same bolt pattern, but will the offset work with the Z4 and will I need spacers? Any help would be greatly appreciated... Thanks!

I don't have a regular Z4 but from another post on this forum I got the following info on the stock wheels:
18x8 et 47
18x8.5 et 50

Increasing from 18 to 19 is fine. The widths of 8 front and 8.5 rear are the same on the E93. The only issue is the offsets. E93 offsets are 34 front and 37 rear. So, if you put your E93 wheels on your Z4, you are moving both the front and rear wheels outward by 13mm. This will probably put the tires close to the fender lip but probably not rubbing. I can't say for certain, but I think it will work and it will look good.

A lot of the non-m wheels run 35-38 offset all the way around they should probably fit quite well

Did you do this? Did it work out for you? I have the same issue I am trying to nail down. Thanks much.

non-///m zsp wheel specs...

8.0" x 18" et47 = front
8.5" x 18" et50 = rear

style 230 specs...

8.0" x 19" et37 = front
9.0" x 19" et39 = rear

these will fit perfectly. i recommend 225/35r19 in front (235's may rub) and 265/30r19 in rear. these wheels will sit inside the arches in a very similar way to the stock wheels on an ///m would be. this will look very good!

make sure you post pics!!!

Fantastic. Thanks. Am very close to pulling the trigger on a 2006 Z43.0si. I will post pics if and when I do it and if and when I make the switch. Thanks.
