E90 16' rim on E36

[anxious]

I understand that there are quite a number of E90 owners upgrading their rims and their owners have traded in their ori 16in at the tyre shops. What would be a fair price for such rims.(w/o tyres) My Q is whether these rims would fit an e36 w/o need for any spacers etc. Would there be any problems with such fitment. Of couse I mean only the rims and not the run flats. If I do get the rims it will be ordinary tyres. Can ordinary tyres be used on such rims. Thanks

yes can i just went to recond my rims,the rims they lend me is the e90 16' rims

I think both use the same 5x120, 72.6mm CB fitment, so it should be fine.

Only other thing to check is wheel width and offset to make sure no problems with struts or fenders.

E36 is normally running offset 41, E90 offset is 34.

can e60 stock 16inch rims fit on e36?

The wheel offset is different, the wheels will stick out from the wheel arches.. Good if you want to do widebody wheel arches.

ok but running wise isit ok?cos i sent my rims for recond and they lend me the e60 stock rims,and when i do a full turn,the tyre seem to be scrapping the side,will it do any major damage to my e36?
