E39 wheels have a slightly larger centre bore than every other BMW wheel that I know of.
Assuming the E90 is the 'normal' 72.6mm, then the answer is no, and that's without considering things like offset.

You can buy spiggot rings to fit e39 wheel on other bmws, but the wheels you are thinking about are almost certainly too low an offset. E39s tend to be et20, e90 tend to be higher offset, so e39 wheels will stick out further and are likely to rub the arches.
Not worth the risk unless you know about the widths, offsets, tyres sizes etc.

Early ones are now being firmly beaten with the council stick. Not as badly as the *uughh* E60 though. See quite a few of those turds with 'modz' and tattooed pilots.pacerpete wrote:Wow are E90s this cheap all ready ?
