LOL! I have definitely seen 19's on plenty of E46's before. The width might cause some minor scrubbing in the front though, 8.5" is pretty wide. I think the determining factor will be the offset, so I highly recommend you do a little homework before you drop $900 on the wrong wheels.
BimmerFest.com and BimmerForums.com would both be good places to start your search.

Not to hijack the thread, but angie how much drop do you have? I've heard alot of people say 19's look like crap on a sedan with stock suspension, not sure if its the same with a coupe?

I need to research the difference in ride heigh between sedan and Coupe then. Yours didn't look bad with stock suspension, how much is it dropped now? My suspension will have to wait until this summer I think. Wheels will be January and I'm trying to decide what size I want...

What are you worried about! Get them! I have 19's also... if you want to drop it, it's gonna require a little bit of rear fender rolling I think...
