    Default E60 Wheels

    Hi, just a quickie.

    Do E60 wheels fit an E34? i.e. same lug pattern spacing and similar offset.

    Cheers,

    Steve

    Are E60 and E39 wheels the same as far as fitment? In other words, do they use the same hubcentric rings to fit on an E34?

    Default Not sure you need rings

    Not sure you need rings as I heard the hubs on the e34 and e60 were the same size. The e39 hub size "error" was not repeated. Not sure if true.

    I have e60 fitment rims on the touring and they do NOT require hub rings. As stated the e39 is the only one with the larger bore.

    Thanks all, I found your previous post about the E39 hub size cock-up! Bet the Design/engineer was gutted and ashamed. Hopefully if you guys are right this will help me out of a tricky situation until Christmas has passed. Long-story best explained with a picy when I get chance!

    Falling that dose anyone know if the Maserati 4000GT Wheels fit? I know it sounds like an unusual question but I’m sure it’s got the same brembro 4 poters as the 850csi set-up I’m running. Along shot, I know!
