Default Rim Fit?

Just finished rear shocks and brakes, now going to get new tires for our 96ti active. We have the (282) LT/ Alloy Wheels w/ Sport Spoke Styling ll. They suuport 15" tires. Would like to upgrade to 16" rims.

Have opportunity to purchase 2000 year 323i rims with bolt pattern 5x120.
They look like style 45s, but don't know the offset.

Will these fit OK?

Thanks in advance for any replys.
Drew

Drew;

Yes, those will fit... basically all the e36 (92-98) and e46 (99-05) 3 series and M3 rims will fit our cars... the offset is usually between -40 to -47 mm... Only ones that can cause issues are rims from Mcoupe or Mroadster as rears are staggered much wider.

Thanks for the advice. I did some research and went ahead and picked them up. Very pleased with purchase as they have not been run in years. Garage kept and near mint. Should really improve look of our ti.
