Hi all-as above really,ive been trawling through fleabay,and some nice alloys (17 inch) that have come off various 5 sreies have been cropping up,but will there be any probs using them?-thanks

I think the offsets will be all wrong andy, look at 3 series E46 and you can't go wrong.

The E60 17" wheels have an off set of 20 and the Z4 46 I think that's quite a difference. Maybe someone who understands offset configs could help.

I have 17" winter wheels from a E46, perfect fit.

also, the centre bore is def larger on the e39, not sure of e60, so you would need rings to go in the wheel centre if you could find some with the correct offset. think theyre 74mm centres........

Fitting a 26mm spacer would do the trick. However 26mm is an odd size!

With the majority of vehicles you can add spacers to effectively increase offset. But it's not possible the other way round.

Certain offsets work the other way, but it's long time since I've had to explain it :lol:
