quik6 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2011 Hey. Interested in buying a set of 19" mags that have just came of a e60, and wondering if they will fit an e39? They also come with tires 245/35zr19 for front and 275/30zr19 for rear. Would these fit fine on my e39? Currently got some 225/55/r16 stock on at the moment.

AN E30 Fan 1 Report post Posted March 1, 2011 Short answer.I doubt it. An E60 has a different hub size than an E39. And with those tyres it will be jacked up like 4x4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quik6 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2011 ok thanks, so they wont fit? As Im looking at 19" Beyerns that were fitted on a bmw e60. Heres the link below: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=356841311 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi535 538 Report post Posted March 1, 2011 the e39 has a odd hub diameter,74.1 mm,whereas the e60(and just about every other 5,67,and 8 series BMW has a 72.5 hub).They will fit if you get the hub machined to suit the e 39 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zenetti 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) Short answer.I doubt it.Incorrect sorry sir - The wheels may need a hub modification but other than that the tyres are the correct size.the e39 has a odd hub diameter,74.1 mm,whereas the e60(and just about every other 5,67,and 8 series BMW has a 72.5 hub).They will fit if you get the hub machined to suit the e 39 Exactly right - however the e60 may be using locating rings as the bore may already be 74.1. If the centre bore is 74.1 then they will bolt straight on, otherwise you will need to get the centres machined out to suit.

quik6 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2011 Sweet thanks for that! I'll ask the seller and find out. How much would it be to get the centres machined? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zenetti 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) Any wheel will fit any car, depending on how much money you spend making them fit. great bit of advice to give a noob . You must have an awesome engineering shop . Try putting a 19x10.5 on the front of a commodore! Not everyone wants the hella flush, poked and stanced look. The majority of people just want a good looking wheel that fits legally and properly without the addition of spacers, guard rolling etc Back OT - Matt - it is generally around $100 to get all 4 wheels machined out but you wil have to get the tyres stripped off first so that they can put the wheel on the lathe. We have new options available in 19" with new tyres for under $2k cheers Johno Edited March 2, 2011 by zenetti Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zenetti 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2011 I am glad you saw the sarcasm font... other members on here *cough cough* would probably have gotten their e-panties in a twist BTW - nice perspex on those wheels - something for you to contemplate on the m3??

DrphTa 5 Report post Posted March 3, 2011 Forums should be a positive place, no negativity around here. In the end were helping people out with knowledge right? not making our internet egos bigger haha. I didnt even notice the wheels had perspex in them. Must be worth more now though being 2 peice lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi535 538 Report post Posted March 3, 2011 What about Hella big? looks like the tyre tread is just glued to the alooominum(which is bolted to the perspex)What on earth would that profile be! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
