Will they fit? Ordering some charcoal style 124s to replace the drifz venom that didn't fit.

That your car?? A 540i with a narrow grill...

Just get some hub rings from tire rack, part #a670 and your set to go.

You just need some hubcentric rings and you'll be good to go

Well, if you looked at my car you'd see the theme I went with, lol. The only thing not black is the wheels on my car. I'll leave those alone so I can have some contrast :)

Uhh, dude, those are E60 wheels.

If they came off an E60, then *I believe* they will bolt right up.

If they were made to fit on an E39, then you'll need to run hubcentric rings.

Yeah those are e60 wheels, and they will bolt up. But you should just buy one of my sets of wheels that I'm selling. I'm local. IMO those wheels are too "soft" to look good on an e34

+1 on Jcb's wheels.

If I didn't just get Style 5s I'd have done it. :cool

These are e60 545/550 sport wheels right? I was thinking of those wheels for my touring, i guess they will fit, huh? e60 wheels have the correct hub diam., right? So no reducer rings

Ahhhhh, glad you corrected me. Lakeshore had them listed as e39 wheels and I guess that messed me up.

What other set are you selling?

I did some research on .info and there is a guy on there that has these wheels. There seems to be a couple opinions on this. There is a guy on there that said these wheels fit only with hubcentric rings, and another says they don't need them.
