BMW Wheel Question

So what year and model BMW uses wheels that are the closest to a perfect match for 3rd gens?

Most sites I look at want to show me wheels for a specific make, model and year car. It would make searching a lot easier to just plug in "1998 535i," for example (I have no idea if a 1989 535i is a good match, by the way).

Re: BMW Wheel Question

Closest to stock fit would probably be E39 M5's. Stock they came with 245/40R18 tires and 18x8 +20 wheels. For more aggressive fits, the 8-Series from the 90's has some lower offset wheels.
