Will E90 wheels fit the F80?

I currently have a 2009 E90 335 with the 18" sport package rims (style 189, I believe). I would be happy if these would fit the F80 (with standard steel brakes) to be used for Winter tires. If they don't, I'll just leave them on the car and purchase some new ones.

Does anyone out there know whether the fit between the two is going to allow me to run these on the new car?

let me ask you a reverse question.
Do the F80 M rims fit your E90 335?

Since I do not have both cars here at once, I am not able to check. Even if they did, that wouldn't be a valid test. The real problem, apart from the offset, is whether the 18" wheels will clear the brake calipers of the F80. I am betting that they do not.

on top of that, you want narrow width wheels for winter - not wider.

That is absolutely true when it comes to driving in snow. It's a bit less important on cold, dry days, so I have to find the best compromise, but the ability to reuse some existing wheels would have been nice.

Honestly I would bet my money that they do fit BMW is pretty good about that. I had 335i Wheels then i got a F30 With M Brakes fit just fine
