Your bro's E46 has a 5x120 bolt pattern. The W211 have a 5x112 bolt pattern....so it won't fit.

Got the info off tire rack for you.

Bolt Pattern


The bolt pattern or bolt circle is the diameter of an imaginary circle formed by the centers of the wheel lugs. Bolt patterns can be 4, 5, 6, or 8 lug holes. A bolt circle of 4x100 would indicate a 4 lug pattern on a circle with a diameter of 100mm.

The diagram indicates the proper measuring methods. 6 lug wheels are measured like the 4 lug wheels.
