will these wheels fit do you think...

My 335d had a spare set of 415 style wheels with winters. Barely used the bloody things in 4 years. Was planning to post in "for sale" over on F30 on the basis they won't fit my F80.

But I've seen mention that 437m fit on an F30 so would the 415s fit the F80?

And before you point out they'll look totally crap, I know they will, I'm just curious and might be worth keeping as an emergency option in extreme weather.

They're 18" btw

REmove a couple of wheels and test it out, nothing to loose. They look OK for winter to me.

I think the only issue would be clearance on the brakes?

Try putting your wheel/tyres details on here:

Thanks AnthonyR Only tried the back wheel and on paper it looks as if they clear suspension. Also a bit out on the speedo. This checker doesn't mention brake clearance. It's sunny, it's Sunday, I'm off to the garage to give it a go as per other suggestions.

Front wheels report fyi

Ok kool, let's see how you get on

PurpleTT · 11-12-2017, 10:38 AM

Nah, no way. Got one on and the caliper was actually touching the inside of the wheel. Could bolt it up but last few turns start to press them together.. ouch.
Oh well worth knowing for a fact.

Pic below but I imagine you can visualise anyway.
