Do you mean these

http://www.e90post.com/forums/attach...1&d=1218954551

Specs 18x8 et 47 front 18x8.5 et50 rear.

Those will fit ,BUT will be more sunken in than your factory wheels and you would be looking 15mm spacer just to get them to extend to same point as stock wheel. If you want them to be closer to fender it would need even thicker spacer. I wouldn't buy those.

Is you car lowered? If not are going to lower it? And do you want your wheels to be flush with fender, close to stock or something else?

This is very good example of nice specs and beautiful alpina wheels.

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=837429

But its lowered and has fender roll at rear to fit these specs.

Front 19x8.5 et22 with 225/35/19
Rear 19x9.5 et16 with 255/30/19

I know these are 19inches, but its the same with 18 inch too.

To extend style 72m to same point as those Alpina wheels front would need 31mm spacer and rear would need 47mm spacer. In my opinion not worth it.

Thanks for the advice...I didn't buy these finally.
No I don't want to lower the car...this is my daily driver and we have tons of snow in winter.
I am just looking for some summer rims...will keep the car on the stock 16" rims for winter.
Otherwise will the Staggered wheels found on the 335's work on my e91 ?
