kiwi6539 3 Report post Posted March 12, 2009 Hello Im looking at getting some bigger wheels for my e34. I would like basket weaves 16 inch or bigger or something similar. But not sure which orignal wheels from other models will fit. Any help very welcome Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Simon* Report post Posted March 12, 2009 Just quickly and others will no doubt chip in but you can directly fit from E32 and E38, E39 with hubcetric rings. By and large there is a fairly big range of wheels for the E39 - these are probably the easiest to find on trademe but you'll need those locating rings like I mentioned if you go that route. Jonno (zenetti) can fix you up with a set and they're not expensive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kiwi6539 3 Report post Posted March 13, 2009 Cheers Brent for offer. I think Ive got some sorted. One question, Can anyone tell me if the whole centre cap of orignal 15inch basket weave of E34 is the same size as orignal 16inch basket weave of E38?. I want to get 16s but don't like the centre cap its a little different to the 15s I have so want to know if I can swap them over. Also just want to check 235/60/16s are ok to run on E34? Any advice would be great. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers dont think you can change the cap , will look funny anyway .no wrong tyres size for e34. will look very ballooney on a e34 and possibly rub on the gaurds. i have 2 good tyres in that size for sale noramally 225/55-16 for a e34 with 16" .
