    What are you, new or something?

    As for the BMW wheels, no you can't make them fit, even with lug adapters because BMW's usually have offsets in the 20's, which is way too low for our cars. The only OEM wheels that have the proper offsets to be able to bolt up to our cars with adapters are Porsche (and some Corvette) wheels.

    Other cars with a 5x112 lug pattern are Mercedes, Maybach, Lamborghini (Gallardo's) and Bentley.

    Other popular Mercedes-centric brands to check out are Lorinser, Lowenhart, Kleemann, Brabus and Carlsson.

    Unless you have the special made Hartge reps from Velocity that were drilled to 5x112 =)

    Hartge is a BMW tuner and also sells wheels.

    BMW wheels are 5x114 we're 5x112

    but you can buy wheel adaptors to fit - which is more trouble than its worth - you can buy BMW reps drilled for our patterns or just get brabus

    some mercedes amg wheels are nice

    Fixed it for you.

    And no, you can't run lug adapters to fit BMW wheels. Their offset are usually in the 20's, so once you get adapters (15-20mm thick), your offset is anywhere from 0-10, which obviously won't work without a widebody.

    Re: Will BMW wheels fit?

    Porsche wheels have high enough offsets to fit fine with adapters and spacers. I've seen a few mounted to vdubs and audis and they look pretty sick.

    Re: Will BMW wheels fit?

    What up Austin boy. Check these I had on my Avant. Made for E-class, and hence a perfect fit. They are currently for sale at a very reasonable price. Do you still have that ECS boost gauge for sale, or is it the one in your car?

    I guess it depends on the year. Most of the E39 wheels I see are 20's. Even so, 30's won't fit after adapters anyway.
