E28 M5 Wheels Lug Pattern?

[FrustratedMunky]

Quick question:

Are these wheels... (I think theyre 16x7.5) 4-lug or 5-lug? I'm assuming they're 5-lug because if they were 4-lug, more people would have them on their E30's but I'm just making sure.

That's weird, I swear that they looked different to what I remembered seeing on the road...

Also, I was looking at some past threads and a guy said a while back that the rims on the M3 were 16" from an E28 M5. People were also guessing that they were 16" EVO basketweaves, which would make more sense.



I guess he was misinformed about his own car?

m5's had 16" basketweaves.
the pic rob posted was just to show they are 5-lug.

the red m3 above has m5 wheels on it.

5x120 is the bolt pattern, same as e30 m3, e36 , etc, etc

Ah okay, thanks.
