I have a 20-piece set “I now have alloy wheels on my M3, but I want to keep them so I can use them on the next vehicle I buy. Do you know of a bolt that will convert a BMW wheel (HRE P40 20) to a another manufacturer’s wheel bolt pattern? I know that you can purchase bolts that do this “) to a C-class Mercedes? (C63)
This is not accomplished by the bolt. Because it is a thick spacer, it may simultaneously have the BMW and Mercedes bolt pattern drilled into it.
Thus, after installing the spacer on the vehicle, the wheel is then bolted straight into the spacer using 10 lugs or bolts altogether. I’m not sure if they have BMW to Mercedes adapters, but they would be useless given that they are typically 20 to 25 mm thick. The difference in offsets between your Mercedes and the extra spacer thickness will prevent the wheels from fitting.
With the use of an adaptor, 5-120 bolt pattern wheels can be mounted on 5-112 bolt pattern wheels.
These adapters are 20mm thick, though. The M3 typically has roughly 20+ offset, while the C63 typically has 40+ offset. Therefore, even if the bolt pattern issue was resolved, it would still be extremely difficult to mount the M3 wheels on the C63.

Do BMWs and Mercedes-Benzes share the same bolt patterns?
Not at all, no. BMWs typically have a 5X120 bolt pattern, whilst Mercedes-Benz typically has a 5X112 bolt pattern. Because the bolt patterns on these two high-end brands differ, their wheels cannot be interchanged directly.
Wheel spacers and wheel adapters can be needed to make the wheels fit, though. Whatever the case, you should take the offset of the Benz and BMW into consideration. The wheels won’t fit if the offset of one of the cars is disproportionately large or small.
I spotted an Audi this past weekend with Porsche wheels and wondered if I could get spacers to make Porsche wheels fit on my C class. But more than anything, I want to know whether this is doable with bmw wheels because I have seen some on a friend’s bmw 3 series that would fit and look fantastic on my car for a reasonable price. But can the lug pattern be changed via spacer, etc., and will this cause any issues for me? Any thoughts or experiences? The idea for the porsche wheels occurred to me as I was considering borrowing some porsche turbo rims from a friend’s car and seen them on an Audi (I wish, but perhaps we could raise the Audi on blocks and test the wheels; wouldn’t that look odd?)
The bolt patterns on the Audi A4 and VW B5 Passat are identical. A VW porche rim adaptor is made by H&R. I believe that just applies to the 5 x 100 pattern A4 Golf/Jetta. But I suppose they ought to produce a wide range of spacers and adapters.
Yes, it is possible, but to account for the thickness of the spacer or adapter being utilized, the wheels must have a significant positive offset. My 190/5.0 has Mercedes center caps and Porsche 928 forged 7X16 wheels on it. The front adapters are 25mm aluminum pieces designed for mounting Porsche wheels on VW Vanagons, while the utilized Porsche wheels have a 65mm offset. The rear spacers are 1/2 inch steel, fabricated to order “thick in order for the wheel to properly fit inside the wheelhouse. To approximate the OE offset, deduct the adapter thickness from the wheel. My offset is 35mm and the OE offset is my 65mm minus 25mm. Any inquiries?

Why not show others that beast of yours? I’m sure they would love to see it. Tell me what you believe. I appreciate your thoughts and time.

Will Mercedes wheels fit Audis?
Offset for Mercedes is 37 mm, and for Audis it’s 45 mm (I believe). E-Class is 5×112 but has a bigger center bore than us. Their rims will sort of fit ours, but ours won’t fit theirs. An E-class has smaller-diameter bolt holes.
Fits a BMW with 5×112?
BMW 5-Series Forum: 5×112 wheel weights, sizes from other models, and tyre possibilities (G30) As many of you are aware, BMW changed their bolt pattern (PCD) to 5×112 from 5×120 with the launch of their newest vehicles, including the G01 X3, G30/31 5 series, G32 6 GT, and G11/12 7 series, after about 40 years.
How much offset are BMW wheels?
A high offset indicates a wide separation between the centerline and the mounting surface of the wheel. More bodywork will tuck under the wheel. More of the wheel will be forced outside of the car with a lower offset. Generally speaking, the 5, 6, and 7-series automobiles have a low offset, while the 1 and 3-series cars have a high offset.
What automobiles have Mercedes’ bolt pattern?

Can 3 Series wheels be used on a 1 Series?
The offset width and tyre size play a major role. tyre sizes and wider tracks in 17 “If you’re not lowered, 3 series offsets might work, but on full bump, it might be too close to the wings (or fenders). He shouldn’t object to a trail fitting since he’s your friend, right?
I recently donned the E36 17 “I have a 135i with M3 wheels and 225/45/17 winter tires all around. The front and rear offsets were 41 and 50, respectively. They were an ideal match.
Comparing that size to a 245/40×17 on an ET41 8.5″ rim (e36 M3 Sunflower alloy), according to the rims n Tyres wheel calculator, shows no discernible difference. That size fit well on my 1.
However, you must check for yourself because you shouldn’t believe or trust everything you read online. or don’t cry to me if it doesn’t fit.
We can all help you more if you can confirm the width and offset of the wheel. Because the 1 series’ fenders are so small, choosing the right wheel and tire combination is crucial to determining whether or not you will experience rubbing problems.
My wheels are ASA JH3 17″ x 7.5″ with a 32 offset and Bridgestone LM 22 225/45×17 tires. Does the 135i coupe have to use this? Bigger offsets are being mentioned by everyone, it seems. Although the rears did appear a little bit “inset” in relation to the fender, they fit well on my 330i.
Are these going to work on a 135i? I have this setup ordered: 17×8 3er replica ET34 with Hankook W300 205/50/17. If there are problems, I need to know this right away because I’ll have to cancel the order in a few days.

I was hoping to use my 17×8 type 119 rims and 225/45/17 tires that I purchased as the winter setup for my old 330ci on my 135i this winter. Style 119s’ offset, in my estimation, is 47 mm.
What kinds of car wheels are interchangeable?
Fortunately, any car has a replaceable rim available. All you need to do is make sure the new wheel’s bolt patterns, size, and offset match those on the old one.
By looking at the sticker label on the inside of the driver’s door or measuring the rim, you may determine the new wheel’s proper size. Take your car to a mechanic if you are not the do-it-yourself kind.
Do 5×120 wheels fit 5×114 3?
The fact that 5×120 to 5×114.3 wheel adapters can only fit on 5×120 vehicle hubs and convert 5×114.3 wheels is crucial to understand. To avoid wasting time or money, conduct some research before starting the project. Most of the time, you can quickly check the bolt pattern in your owner’s handbook or on Google by entering the model and year. However, there might be some exceptions, particularly if you don’t know the new wheels’ PCD.
It is best to measure the lug pattern size yourself, however. Choose one lug hole on a 5-lug wheel as your starting point, and then use a ruler to measure from the edge of that hole to the center of the hole next to it (skip the one bolt hole). The bolt pattern would be 5×4.5″ or 5×114.3 if the bolt pattern circle diameter is 4.5 inches (114.3mm). Of course, you can get help from your neighborhood auto shop.
What automobiles have a 5×114-3 bolt pattern?
Honda Civic or Mazda Accord, Nissan Qashqai, Dacia Duster, Hyundai i30 and x35, Renault Megane III and Laguna III, Kia Cee’d, Sportage and Venga, Mitsubishi Lancer, Outlander and ASX, Toyota Auris and Avensis III, Citroen C-Crosser, Suzuki SX4, Fiat Sedici, Mazda 3 are the most popular vehicles with PCD 5×114,3.
