Would the offset and centre bore fit the 2

gut feel is no, but without knowing teh PCD or offset or width it's really impossible to say

I know the pcd is 4x100 so theres a start.

Just emailed the seller asking what the offset and centre bore is

in which case they will 99% sure physically attach

wether it will be driveable depends on teh offset and width

Offset is roughly 30-35mm and Centre Bore 60mm i believe according to google searches

Just need to find the width now, but at a guess it should be 7", maybe 7.5"

According to this place they are 40...

However on the mini sites, everything is discussed between 35 and 48 for normal mini offsets.

But then if you look at the Rota shop, they're 45's...

Better get an answer from the seller - it'll be stamped somewhere on the wheels.

Been looking and the rota's should be 40mm due to many jap cars being of similar offset.
And yes i'm now getting mini can take offset of 37-45.

Hopefully they will be ok.

Size = 7.5 x 17
Offset = 45
PCD = 4 x 100
HB = 67.1

this is the specs of the wheels

how does this relate to the 2

offset is perfect as the stock is 45mm  :-) :-) :-)

I'm slighly concerend ref a 7.5" width up front I suspect it will rub a little, run a 205 tyre and adjust yor wheel arch liners you may be ok

not sure about teh bore

Center bore is huuuuge, ours is tiny - 54.1mm, you'll probably want hubcentric rings (spigot rings) to suit.

[edit] Oh I should add - all aftermarket wheels will have a huge center bore, because they are generally universal. You don't have to run spigot rings, the tapered wheel nuts should center the wheel, but I prefer them as it's far easier to get the wheel on central and balanced.

Bear in mind that I contacted a great many such people..

Most of them said "Oh, no, can't get that size" for the Volks.

In the end I had to make my own out of three different sets..  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

67.1mm is standard BMW fitment though, so there should be plenty with that outside diameter.

Since you've lost the stagger on the wheels, make sure your tyres make up for it. SP put 205/40 and 215/40 on theirs, though I'm not sure if they ever sold any.

Are your front and rear wheel sizes different, or only the tyres?
