BreakMyWindow 1874 Report post Posted March 31, 2011 You may be dissapointed to find that they won't fit on the e39 hub (see above post) Style 32's were an option in 18" for e39 very rare tho, and staggered unlike the ones you describe. What car are they coming off? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j.ingledew 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2011 They don't fit. Quite angry because when I bought them I was told specifically by the seller at the parts place that they will fit my car. They go on but as soon as you drive they are all over the place wobbling like crazy. I am taking them back and I am going to shout lots. Is there a way to make these fit on my car. Can I make the bore bigger or change my hubs to E38s? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lucan 196 Report post Posted March 31, 2011 Bit of machine work on the wheels? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j.ingledew 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2011 Yeah pretty much Lucan. I just spoke to Johno at Mag and Tyre Direct (you are a legend) and he put me on to Wheel Fix It who can machine the bore on a lathe. The only problem is that this will cost me $220 including pulling off the tyres and putting them back on and balancing them and such. If anyone can get a discount on machining them you are a champion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j.ingledew 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) Update have sorted it for $160 + gst now! I think. See how we go. Sorry Johno. Can anyone come over today and help me change my brakepads by the way? Here is how the wheels look and I do really want to keep them.

zenetti 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2011 DON'T drive any further with the wheels on the car. They will likely fall off. If you can get the wheels to us we will strip the tyres off for you no charge. That should make it cheaper to getthe centres machined for you as well.

I am not driving on them, I just put them like that to show what they look like. Thanks for the offer by the way but I am just going to get my money back on them.
