    Fitment question

    Toying with a set of 20x9.25 et36 front and rear for my e46 touring. Any idea if these may fit and if so, tyre size also? Thanks in advance

    20 inch wheels do not belong on an E46.

    Tend to agree. Even 19's require a short profile which is not desirable for any remotely resembling rough roads. 20's just look wrong as well, my opinion of course.
