For 18" wheels, we offer all of our flow formed wheel designs in an 18x9" ET30, however, the EC-7 design specifically is an ET31, so no typos on Bimmerworld's end. Fitment-wise, it will be practically the same as the other 18x9" ET30 wheels.

For an E90 non-M 3-Series, we recommend using the 18x9" ET30/31 with 245/40-18 tires at all four corners for a complete direct fit. As a wider alternative, you can also fit 255/35-18 tires as a complete direct fit on a stock car.

255/45-18 tires are going to be way too tall to fit on a non-M E9X, as they are far outside of the 3% threshold in overall rolling diameter compared to the factory tire sizes.

If you have any other questions, please let me know!

hi Geirsen,

as i mentioned, i've ordered the Arc8 ET30 with 255/40/17 square. for a pre-lci e90 daily driver, no track. do you think i'll have an issue clearing up front? this size is only .055mm larger diameter than the OEM 225/45/17. but they're 1.14" wider.

but besides clearing/rubbing do you think in general, adding a -2.5 fixed camber plate is overkill or recommended for a daily driver?

TMS has this fixed -2.5 camber plate.
