I don't think those look that good because they are 17s. But even at 18 inch they may not look as good as they do on the e90 since the f30 tires have a thicker sidewall. Perhaps a 19 inch rep.

Cant help you with a pic, but they definitely fit. I have a 2013 M-Sport and am using my 193s for winters. 193s are the exact same offset/size as 162s (and 189s, and most of the other 18" e90 OEM options). The offset on the rears are nice; they are pretty close to flush with the fender. Kinda like having spacers in the back. I bet you could find a set cheap on e90post classifieds.
The only thing I am not 100% sure about is if they will clear the Msport brakes that started with MY2014.

Sorry to bump this thread...but i just love how the 162 looks on the E90. It almost look like they're 19"s since they fill the wheel space really well. I just wish that the F30 18" wheels have the same sidewall thickness...

BMW F30
Hi Guys, I have just placed fully restored to their former glory 162 18" rims to my F30 - front 225/45/18 rear 255/45/18 - fits perfectly and drives amazingly well.
Tires are Micheline Crossclimate 2 - you may say that profile is a bit high but thanks that and despite lowered and stiff suspension from Bilstein they are really quiet and offer surprisingly smoother drive over road imperfections and bumps - anyway, this tire dimensions are not recommended in F30 in case of 18" rims - rear wheels in case of 255 should have profile 40 not 45, I have not found any significant change in fuel consumption. Interesting fact: on those wheels speedometer shows exact speed (matching to GPS readings) factory one were showing slightly more comparing to GPS. I don't know how about you but I really like those wheels with F30 body. Cheers to you All. Adam Last edited by Adam White; 05-15-2023 at 06:08 AM.. |
