Hey guys, Just wondering if E90 wheels will fit on and F30? Looking to purchase some winter wheel and tire set up and wanted to know if they would fit.

Thanks

They should just fit. However, the E9x tire sizes are different than the F3x tires (5% shorter profile.)

The TPMS being different and tires being too short means you may be better off just getting a package from tire rack.

They fit fine. I've used 193s as winter tires for my previous and current F30. The rear offset (if staggered) is a bit more aggressive but actually looks better than the stock offset in my opinion.

As floydarogers said, the correct tire size would have a taller aspect ratio. That said, i used my 193s with winter tires at e90 specs for winter tires, which resulted in the speedometer and odometer being optimistic to the tune of around 5%. Probably messes with the traction control calibration a bit too but for a couple months never really had an issue.

As for TPMS, if you can live with the dash warning and are comfortable measuring your own tire pressure you can probably skip the TPMS for a couple months of the year.

Accruing more mileage on your cars odometer than you are actually traveling could be an issue for those who lease.

I just got annoyed with clicking OK to tpms error every time and i started the car. Found new sensors on ebay for $175

Yes you are right and mine was a lease but i just stayed aggressive about how late i put them on and switched them out as soon as the risk of snow was gone - but yes, could make a difference if you are cutting it close.
