Pretty sure they are style 345M. Fitted to the F series M5 originally IIRC.
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

Ah nice one. Cheers.

Does anyone know if they will fit direct to the e86?

Nope. They are 345m.

9" and 10" staggered widths. They will need seriously wide (and expensive) tyres.

Ye you are right!

269 very similar. Will these be a straight fit?

Best bet is to get the offsets of the 345Ms and the offsets of your wheels. Then use the below website to 'play' with tyre sizes to see what the differences will be.
They obviously can be made to fit an E86, hence the picture.
