We are going to need some more info on those beamer wheels. Width? Offset? exact dimensions would be most helpful

You and I both.

How does 1 buy a rim without knowing if it will fit the car they will be going on.

BMW's are 5x120 bore 70+
TL's are 5x114 bore 64.1

Good Luck

Bahahahaha the fact that they're even a different bolt pattern is the icing on the cake!

4th gen TL's are 5x120 .. 3rd gen's aren't. I know that and don't even own a TL.


You, my friend, have some pricey paper weights.
