HERE'S WHAT FITS YOUR E90 || FIT CHECK

If you just picked up a BMW E90 and want to know the best wheel sizes and fitment options, you've come to the right place! The E90 generation, introduced in 2006, marked a significant evolution in BMW's 3-Series lineup. With its refined styling, advanced suspension, and the debut of the turbocharged N54 engine in the 335i, the E90 quickly became a favorite among enthusiasts. It also featured the only M3 powered by a V8—the legendary E92 M3.

Like previous 3-Series models, the E90 uses a 5x120 bolt pattern with factory wheel sizes ranging from 16 to 19 inches. The hub size for this generation is 72.56mm, so when choosing aftermarket wheels, you’ll want to ensure they’re hub-centric or you’ll want to use hub rings to avoid vibrations. Fitment varies slightly between models, especially for the 335i and M3, which have larger brakes. Here, we’ve broken down fitment into four categories: No Hassle, Slight Flex, and All the Wheel.

NO HASSLE FITMENT

Looking to get your BMW E90 dialed in without the headache of rubbing, rolling, or excessive modifications? Our No Hassle Fitment setup is designed to give your E90 that perfect stance while keeping things clean and functional. Up front, you’re looking at 18–20" wheels with widths ranging from 8.5" (ET35–29) to 9" wide (ET35–31), giving you a flush, aggressive look without sacrificing daily drivability. In the rear, the sweet spot is 9.5" wide (ET35) or go a bit wider with 10" (ET28–27) for a bolder footprint and that classic rear squat. Whether you're riding static or dialed in on coilovers, this setup hits that sweet spot between form and function—no guesswork, no rubbing, no hassle.

Suggested Fitment:

Front: 18-20"x8.5” wide, ET35-29 / 9” wide, ET35-31
Rear: 18-20"x9.5” wide, ET35 / 10” wide, ET28-27

SLIGHT FLEX FITMENT

Ready to turn things up a notch? Our Slight Flex Fitment brings a little more attitude to your E90 with a bolder, more aggressive stance—perfect for those who want their setup to do a little talking. Go with a square setup using 18–20" wheels at 9.5" wide all around (ET22), ideal for rotation and a planted feel across all four corners. Want to lean into a staggered look? The front fits best with 9.5" wide wheels (ET22–25), while the rear gets that extra flair with 10.5" wide wheels (ET25–27), giving your E90 some real street presence. It’s still clean, still driveable—but with a slight flex that lets people know you’ve got your fitment game dialed.

Suggested Fitment:

Square Setup: 18-20x"x9.5” wide, ET22

Staggered Setup:

Front: 18-20"x9.5” wide, ET22 - ET25
Rear: 18-20"x10.5” wide, ET25 - ET27

ALL THE WHEEL FITMENT

If you're the type to go big or not at all, this one’s for you. The All The Wheel Fitment pushes the E90 platform to the edge with maximum width, maxed-out presence, and no apologies. For the square setup, we’re talking 10" wide wheels (ET25) all around—perfect for those who want grip and girth in equal measure. Want the full flex? Go staggered with 10" wide up front (ET25) and a massive 11" wide out back (ET25) for that deep, aggressive rear stance that screams track-inspired style. This setup isn’t for the faint of heart—it’s for the fitment freaks who want all the wheel and aren’t afraid to show it.

Suggested Fitment:

Square Setup: 18-20"x10” wide, ET25

Staggered Setup:

Front: 18-20"x10” wide, ET25
Rear: 18-20"x11” wide, ET25
