    Salad Shooters on a 5-lug--5x120 with 5x120.65 Wheels

    What is the risk of using 5x120.65 wheels on a 5x120 bolt pattren car. I was thinking about running "salad shooters"/c4 corvette wheels on a 5-lug BMW, but I was wondering if it's really dangerous or damaging to the car to put the wrong size bolt pattern on a car. The bolt patterns are very close, less than a millimeter, but could that damage the wheels or car? I have seen a few people doing it online, but I wasn't sure if it's really bad or if it isn't that much of a risk.

    Also if anyone wants to throw in information about fitment with their salad shooters, I would appreciate it!

    Thank you

    regardless of the risk, the consequence is issues with the thing that attaches the wheels to the car. I personally would never do it. Very close is not good enough.

      This has been discussed to death. Its actually 1/3 of 1 mm difference(on paper); in real life there is no difference. Anyone who says otherwise will have zero proof of any negative outcome. Make sure the hub bore is matched.
