X5 alloys on Z4?

[Raj_UK]

I've started looking for some winter alloys and was wondering whether X5 alloys will work for me? I've seen it stated on a website that the E53 X5 has the same stud pattern and centre bore diameter (72.56) but then some X5s are listed as 74.1.

Also the bolt size is listed as 14x1.5b vs Z4 12x1.5b.

Anyone able to clarify the above?

Cheers

Are you talking about tiger claws?

Cheers for the links DPG! I wasn't referring to tigerclaws specifically. More on the hunt for cheap 17s.

I think my post should simply have read "Do all X5 alloys fit an e86?!"

Simple answer would be yes although you could search for 6 months & not find a set of suitable 17s for your E86 cheaper than these OEM staggered 17s listed yesterday on here :wink:

They are very tempting! Would prefer a square setup for winter. If I got X5 alloys could I reuse my bolts?

I've got a set of 17's for sale complete with winter tyres. They're on the classifieds. Not sure where your based though?

Thanks, but I think the 20 mm offset may look a bit fandango on my e86!!

I think they do not fit.

Why not?
