Deep Dish BBS LMs on E36 Coupe ? (3er BMW - E36 Forum)

Hi Folks,

Brian here from Ireland. I own a 95 M3 coupe.

Can anyone explain what level of "arch work" was completed on this e36 to get the LMs of 18x10 fitted ? or could 18x9 size LMs fit without arch work ?

You have to pull your wing very far out, 10x18 is really big for a E36.
Your car(wings/fender) need sure repaint after this work.

Kannste so doch garnich sagen. Das kommt immer noch auf die ET an.

Which IS are the rims?

Bitte :)

Would 18x9 with offset of 35 fit the rear without arch/fender work ? I don't mind having to have the fenders rolled however.

9x18" ET35 fits without any bodywork.
I have 9x18" ET40 and ther is around 15mm space to the fender

Which tire-size you want fit ?

Well I got the following reply from BBS

Dear Brian,
We only have one LM wheel in 18x8. But the bolt circle of this type is 114.3 and you need 120.
The same applies for 18x9. We have two LM types with this size but the one has a bolt circle of 114.3 and the other of 130.
Therefore we only can offer you:
LM124 (18x8.5) -> offset: 30mm
and LM128 (18x9.5) -> offset: 32mm
