: 1)Offset is 20mm.

: 2) Hub diameter is larger on E39 wheels than E34. Thus, E34 owners would have to use hub reducing rings in order to avoid problems.

: 3) The tires mounted on the rims (225/50/15) are significantly smaller than E34 tires (225/60/15)

: 4) Even at $600, the price is probably too high. 15" wheels are the smallest available wheels for E34 and E39 owners. It may be difficult to find a buyer who's willing to pay that much to buy "+0" wheels. Try posting them on the E28 board. At least the tires are the correct size for E28's.

: Good luck,

: : I am not sure if i listed the offset correctly.
: : Also from a 97 BMW wheel catalog I assumed that there is no difference for the E34 or E39 in terms of
: : offset.

: : Can someone e-mail me the offset? I am getting questions for the E28 and can't answer them for sure.

: : Thanks.

: : They were from my E30 M3, previous owner put them on, but the offset does not work with full pads on
: : the front.
