im thinking of possibly buying some in the future and want to know if they fit our e34. If they do, does anybody have any pics of the wheels on your car?

...as Regal says,you will need hubcentric rings so that they mount properly over the smaller dimeter hub centre on the E34.

Do you need the rings if they are the reps made for the e34?

hubcentric spacers or spigot rings available in the UK from Roadhouse tel - 08702 404171 ( light alloy for about £30.00 a set )

also on ebay as BMW spigot rings ( UK )

only way to get an E39 wheel to balance as the centre hole is 1.5mm !!! bigger at 74mm on the E39

without the rings the wheel feels like it always needs balancing as it doesn't sit centrally on the hub

Phil, those are 17" M5 replicas, are they not? Have you been happy with the quality?
