NZ 540iS 6 Speed Manual - Technoviolet

dont know what the max width is but hubcentric rings are required if you get wheels that are direct fit for the E39.The e39 has a hub of 74.1mm and just about every other 5,6,7, or 8 series BMW has a 72.5 mm hub.A lot of aftermarket BMW wheels will have the larger hub diameter.You need to make up the difference and although a movement of about .75 of a mmm seems inconsequential it will almost certainly cause a shimmy in the front suspension Here is some info on e34 wheel fitment.You have to be careful with wheel and tyre sizes.Firstly to retain the proper speedo reading and secondly to prevent abs problems.The abs compares the wheel speeds between front and rear.if you use "wrong" sized tyres you could trigger an abs fault -

not reallly but you still need to stop the sun shining in through the windscreen.Leaving the sunroof tilted lets the air circulate a bit too -

-

E34 Check Lights – Brake Light/Tail Light/Dip Beam/Lic Plate LIght

i shortened the plastic sheath on my car and unclipped the wire from the last clip before it enters the sheath because i felt that it caused less bending of the wires.If the "freeing" of the wires has worked there must be insulation damage.take of the plastic sheath and look again there must be damge there otherwise you wouldnt have warnings.Best way to fix will be with heatshrink tubing but of course that means cutting and soldering wires.Tape will work but is only temporary fix.Good luck the warning bongs still winds me up even after 8 years!There are lots of warnings but one of them is NOT for leaving your lights on!(on my car anyway!)
