Does anyone know if 2008 E92 335i Coupe SPORT OEM STYLE 189 wheels & Runflat tires would fit on a 2006 Z4 3.0si?

they should fit, i had the 328i sport wheels (style 197) fit on my 07 3.0si. the stance was great because their offset is slightly more aggressive than ours. if you can find out exact width and offset, we can verify. but make sure the tires are oem z4 fitment as e90 might be taller/wider (not sure).

Thanks for your help!

I am not an expert, but here is the link to the posting. Maybe it makes sense to you?

225/40 and 255/35 are the same tire fitments for z4, you will be fine (especially if you're on stock suspension)

Actually I think some folks with sport package suspensions have had some rubbing issues up front with E9x rims. The 34/37 offset will sit these rims 1/2" further out than the 47/50 of the OEMs. I agree that a stock non-sports-package suspension should work, but I'd want to check them out on my car before buying...

Thanks again.

I have sport button on my 3.0si but not the bucket seats. Can you tell based on that if I do have the sport package or not? Sorry just bought the car used and the wheels were changed to 17 inch ones from the regular 3.0i

Sport package (suspension) or not, they will fit. Believe me, my car is dropped and I have no issues with rubbing with 265s...I may even consider adding a 10 mm spacer.

The rubbing concern is actually more for the fronts than the rears. But as long as you stick with a 225 and don't go up to a 235/40, you should be fine.

I'm running 8.5" with offset of 30mm on 255 and no rub.

sorry, should've specified. those are for my rears. i was just confirming that the rears would not be an issue b/c i'm running a 30mm in the back.

my fronts are currently 8.5" with 42mm offset on a 225/40 but i plan on changing to a 255/30 up front too once these wear down.
