Set of four Borbet rims with Blizzak Tires from my Daughters BMW
Permalink  
 


Daughter bought and used one winter in Italy on her BMW.  Stored since move back to the states and now she traded the BMW for a Silvarado.

  The bolt circle is 120 by 5 on a 7 in rim.    The center hole is 72.56mm  It looks like the rims fit BMW and Land Rovers.

$250 to any club member.  Borbet

 Bolt pattern is 5x120mm which converts to 4.72" That's why they will go on the Chevelle but would need metric flange nuts to match the metic nut flange on the wheel.

They won't fit any VW's. They will fit Acura RL models and Honda Ridgline and Odysseys. Not much else with that pattern and then there is still the concern of offset.

Might want to include the pattern size in your cl ad so they don't come back on ya.

 Is there a way to find out what cars these rims will fit?  There were on my daughters 325i BMW wagon.

Funny this was brought up. I was doing some googling last night to study more on BMW wheels on GM cars. A lot of the Camaro guys have used them, and its only cerain styles. I dont think that perticular wheel style will appeal to the early guys. No dish and there would be a spacer required to get that wheel to fit. No dish at all to it means it will rub on the inside and probably wouldnt even bolt up without the spacer. IMO, list them as wheels for a BMW and sell it to another BMW owner that might need a set of wheels to use for snow tires in the winter. There are a few styles of Bimmer rims that fit with minimal clearance issues according to the popular pro touring type websites out there but the set you have there isnt one of them.

 I think they only fit BMW's and Land Rovers.  Maybe a few other cars.  Craigslist ad lists them as BMW.
