Well, BMW are RWD, so they got lower offset... I don't think they will fit...

It all depends on the number of lugs on the rim/car, and the offset. If they match, then they will fit... in the case with BMW. Most likely it won't...

Same is true that TL rim doesn't fit on BMW, one member have tried before....

depending of the rim width and offset, they might fit in this regard. however, the bolt patterns are different...5x120mm for the bmw, and 5x114.3mm for the tl.

(it is not possible to enlarge the lug openings either since the diameters are too far apart...you could enlarge the mercedes 5x112mm to fit their wheels on your tl. but again, you need to find the right widths and offsets.)

sorry!

ANY wheel with the right bolt pattern will fit!! You can fit the little low rider mesh wheels if you'd like! BMW rims = BBS rims and they have low offset. Yes, they might go on, but you'll rub like mad if you drop your car or have passengers in the car. I already know one person who has 35mm+ offset wheels on his Accord. He is not happy of course, it got so bad that the steel braiding inside the tires rubbed and became visible from the outside.
