Sorry guys, I'm really new when it comes to rims and tires . I have a 328i 2014 f30. I'm planning on to purchase a set of wheels that came of an e90 335. The wheels Are 19x8.5 40 offsets. Tires are 245/35/19. I did not lower my car or anything. Do you guys think it will fit my f30?

Thanks for the help fam!

Sure, they'll work.

The tire is just a bit small compared to a stock F30 setup. It should be 255/35, so your circumference/diameter will be a bit less. When you get new tires you'll likely want 255/35s.

For sure! I was confusing by the different offsets. Thought it will not fit

Thanks a lot! Appreciate!

The 40 offset on 8.5x19 front and back should be fairly close to typical for an F30.

eta - typically an F30 runs 225 fronts, on 7.5 or 8 inch rims. So be aware with an 8.5 inch front rim I'd feel the need to run 255/35 front and rear, which is a bit uncommon for an F30 3 series, and something I personally wouldn't typically choose to do.

Speak of aware, do you mean like it might hit the suspension or even the fender perhaps?
Appreciate for the advise!

I don't think the 245/35s will rub anywhere as they are now.

Not sure how much bigger the fronts can get before that becomes an issue. I'd guess 255/35 would be okay too, but at some point it's gets dicy.
