18"x9.5" @ 41 ET, fit on a 3.0i?

Looking at a set of wheels off of a '99 M3 which are listed as a 41 offset in the rear and are 18"x9.5". Can I fit them on 2003 Z4 3.0 without rolling the fenders?

Thanks guys (and gals)

Chad

I've got 18x9.5 with 43 offset on the rear of my 2007 coupe with no problems. I'm also running the oe size 255/35 tires.

Alright, that confirms what I found in a post elsewhere saying for a 9.5" rear you need to run a 40-45mm offset.

Thanks for the input.

Hey there,

I've got 19x9.5 et30 on the back with 255/35 tyres, but my car is lowered so the wheels tend to camber in more (i think). Personally when i fitted et45 at the back i thought they were tucked in the arch too much...To answer your question et41 will be fine

Thanks,
Bob.
