All of them but only the 2001+ wheels will look good on it.

Any [3 series] wheel from 92+ except for a few small diameter wheels will have brake clearance issues.

ok thanks guy i was just looking at some oem m3 19's off a 2003 or 2004 m3 on ebay and i asked the sellers and there like no way they'll fit and i thought they might be mistaken. so the offset and bolt pattern ect.. and all that wont be an issue they just bolt on?

Actually I don't know about the sedan, now that I think of it. If it were a coupe, they would fit. I think the sedan will have rubbing issues in the rear but if they did, it would be easy to off the rears and possibly even trade for a pair of fronts.

*edit* and like I said, check out bf.c(bimmerforums) do a search on 'm3 wheels fit sedan' or 'm3 wheels 325i' or something of the nature. Don't start a new thread asking because 1 million and 1 people ask everyday and the guys get annoyed if you don't at least make a valiant effort to find one of those threads that have the question already answered.

Whup, forgot the M3.

The E46 M3 front wheels will fit your car all the way around, but the rears are too low of an offset (coupe or sedan).

I've seen non-M's on eBay with M3 wheels all around. Fender rolling? I have also seen non-M's with M3 fronts all around and you can see there's quite a bit of room left. This is just coupes though, I've never looked up sedans.

The offset would push the rear M3 wheel way outside the fender. The sedans and coupes have the same bodies re: wheel offsets, etc.
