    Default Will BMW wheels fit a VN

    Gidday,
    I have heard that some BMW wheels (PCD120x5) will fit VN on.
    Has anyone done this to their car?
    If so were the wheels a 'bolt on' or was a mod required either in the way of a spacer(wheel offset) or centre bore diameter.
    Thanks, Mick

    Yeah BMW wheels all have the same stud pattern as Holden wheels, but only some have the matching offset...

    I thought BMW wheels were offset the other way. Looking at the ones on Ebay they look like they sit in further rather than out.

    It completely depends which series BMW it is, i.e. 3 series might have one offset but 7 series have a different offset, and in the next generation it can be different again.
