Hi guys!

Can;t belive my baby is one year old this weekend! Well since I've owned it anyway!

I've got a 1996 728i E38 and would love to put some 19" Style-95 alloys on it ala the new 760. I've found some for sale at an awesome price (originals), the question is - will they fit? I know the offset is fine (20), and tyre diameter won't be a problem either (they're about 0.6" wider diameter than standard 18" fitted to the car) - but what about PDC and bolt diameter?

Does anyone have any views on this? Also - will they be too wide? (245/45 profile front, 275/40 profile back)

Thoughts?

They should fit, but don't take my word for it. I would suggest you contact a BMW dealer/Specialist who should be able to tell you. Alternativley a tyre and wheel specialist should be able to give you that information, but I know all 7's can take very big wheels.
