Seen it done before. They will fit but you'll need to run hub rings adapters. Rubbing will only come into play depending on if you're lowered.

BMW's run a smaller hub size. Without running the correct hub size you may run into vibration. You can buy a set for $10-20 from most tire shops.

Is that all you would need to do? Offset is usually off. I'm looking at getting rims and having a hard time finding much.
Most BMW's are 5x120, (not sure about 0.68)
And 55 offset. I know the bore is off. So get a hub converter and you're all good? Even on an awd wouldn't have a prob? Assuming there's no staggering

He's not saying about the bolt pattern, he is talking about the hub bore, bmw is 72.6mm our car is 64.1. So you need hub centering ring

For a couple dollars more per rim you could get yourself a set of Rotiforms!

They're running a buy one get one free sale! PM me for quotes!
