Fugly OE BMW wheels
Wow, almost all the BMW OE 20" wheels are fugly. Will the 20" 5x112 Audi S5 Rotor wheels fit our G01's? The centerbores are close (maybe the same?) at 66.5/66.6 mm.
The Audi's, however, may have ball seat lugs so not sure the OE BMW lugs would work - any ideas?

I had the impression that Audi wheels will work now with the new 112 BMWs. Check the offsets for the specific wheel though. You can buy the necessary lugs to go with them, when I had my S4 I had to buy lugs to put aftermarket wheels on because the Audi ones are special.

I don't have an Audi wheel but I see your point now. I wasn't thinking . .... in fact I was thinking about Porsche macan wheels and the Porsche crest is obviously different cap / style .

I don't know the specific wheel but just googling it looks like maybe 68mm caps fit a 2008-2019 Audi S5. I bought BMW 68mm caps for my winter wheels off Amazon two weeks ago. They look good.

I think I'm going to take a flyer and buy the set of OEM S5 wheels; the seller wants $1,100 so I'll offer $800 and see if he bites.

I down spec'ed from the standard 718M to 699M because I like their elegance and I could have them without RFTs. The 21s are more butch and kind of "technical". Between those 2 wheel designs there are options to suit most people I'd have thought.

I got 20" 699M's with mine. They look even better in person than in pics.
I do plan to ditch the RFT's though, probably for All Weather Vredestein Quatrac 5's...

I think the 699's are far from Fugly and I love them on my X3.

Also I think those Audi wheels (the OP mentioned) are hideous. |

Update: You guys were right, the Audi wheels didn't look right. I gave up and ordered a set of staggered 20" BBS CCR (9" and 10-1/2") with Michi PS4 to run in the summer; OE 19's with Nokians for winter.

Please post a picture of your car once you installed the BBS rims. Thanks.

dkreidel,
LOVE that BBS wheel! Wish I would have seen that as I would have purchased it in 19" for my Winter wheel (with my Nokians) vs. the OZ Hyper GT I have. So cool, that is. I have the 20" OEM as my Summer wheel. |
