    OK, final question, how will this wheel and tire combo work?

    Guys,

    Thanks for all of the help on the other thread. I found a set of used wheels and tires that I am about to pull the trigger on and I just want to make sure that they'll fit. I don't mind rolling the fender, etc.

    F - 18x8.5 +38mm, 245/35
    R - 18x9.0 +45mm, 255/35

    Thanks for your help.

    If you are willing to possible roll the fender lips they should work. Now you do not list the bolt pattern or the center bore so I can't be sure but the sizes and offsets are good.

    Hey Jim, thanks for the response. They are off of an e46 coupe. The guy works at Butler Tire in Atlanta and got them from BBS in Braselton. The BBS guy said they were made to fit the e36 but would work on his e46, so he bought them. I just want to independantly confirm that those wheels will fit the e36 if they fit the e46. I don't mind rolling the fenders, etc. Thanks again.

    The BBS wheels are aggressive and will fit but maybe need a fender lip roll.
