Will five series wheels fit three series?

No. The 5 Series gets different offset than the 3 Series gets.

Just my luck. Sure wish they made this style wheel for the three. Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.

Yes..... but the offset is wrong

Nick

Hmm, I wonder if any replica wheel makers would produce a 3-Series wheel in the 5-Series pattern?

Kevin

Which style 525i OE wheels? There have been several different ones depending on the year, trim level, etc. If you identify which style you like you may find that they might also be manufactured to fit the 3 series. Many of the more popular styles are by different wheel manufacturers.

Yes, but it depends on the popularity of the pattern.

I like the ones that come stock on the 06 525i non-sport. I believe they are style 138.

Jack, Check this out. It's all of the available factory wheels that are out there. It gives the Style number, and many of the offerings give the specifications and which models they fit.

Also, you should visit eBay, and plug in BMW E46 WHEELS. This will give you all of the wheel offerings on eBay that fit your car, even if they are from the aftermarket. If you only want factory wheels, then plug in OEM into the search string. If you only want a certain diameter, then plug that in as well. If you would like a list of other models of car, then omit E46 and see what happens.

Haven't been there in a while, Jeff? The site's owner removed all the pictures a while back - October or early November; I used to use the site myself. epbrown

"E Brown" >there.

No, I haven't. I clicked on the link to be sure it wasn't broken, it never ocurred to me to actually read what came up, DOH!

The site's owner removed all

The beauty of the link I posted was that the offerings were factory wheels, not aftermarket.

Yes, over 2 months later I ran across a replacement for Jeff's link. Better late than never:
