BMW Wheel Fitment Guide for Aftermarket Alloy Wheels
A verified reference for BMW wheel fitment: PCD, center bore, bolt thread and selected OEM wheel and tire configurations for the 3 Series, M3, 5 Series and X5. Built for distributors, importers and aftermarket buyers who need facts before they order.
BMW Fitment Basics
PCD (bolt pattern): the diameter of the circle through the lug holes. For the verified BMW chassis below, the PCD is 5x112.
Center bore (CB): the diameter of the hub opening in the center of the wheel. The verified chassis below use a 66.6 mm hub.
Bolt thread: the thread spec of the OEM wheel bolts. The verified chassis below use M14x1.25.
Offset (ET): the distance between the wheel centerline and the mounting face. ET varies by OEM wheel configuration — it is configuration-specific, not a single chassis-wide value.

Understanding BMW PCD, Center Bore & Bolt Thread
The 5x112 bolt pattern means five lug holes on a 112 mm bolt circle. It is the common pattern across the verified BMW chassis in this guide.
The 66.6 mm center bore must be matched or correctly centered. Some aftermarket wheel programs use a larger center bore — where applicable, the correct centering solution must be confirmed before installation.
The M14x1.25 bolt thread is the OEM specification for the verified chassis. Mounting hardware, seat type and shank length are part of a complete fitment check.
Exact fitment always depends on the complete specification: size, width, offset, brake clearance, load requirement and vehicle trim.
Center bore note: Some wheel programs use a larger center bore. Where applicable, the correct centering solution must be confirmed before installation.
OEM Wheel Size vs Aftermarket Wheel Size
OEM wheel sizes and configurations in this guide are reference data from verified OEM technical specifications. An aftermarket wheel with the same PCD and center bore is NOT automatically compatible — diameter, width, offset, brake clearance and load rating must each be checked against the specific vehicle and configuration.
5x112 Wheel Programs from AORUI
AORUI supplies 5x112 wheel programs for wholesale, OEM/ODM and private label projects. Current catalog options with 5x112 availability include AR-01, AR-04 and AR-05 (see the wheels by bolt pattern page for real specifications). These are available wheel program options — not a compatibility claim for any specific vehicle.
Custom wheel specifications are confirmed per project.
Engineering verification is available for your specific vehicle, wheel size, offset and application.
Final fitment must be confirmed for the specific vehicle, wheel size, offset, brake package and load requirement.
Why Engineering Verification Matters
Wheels are a safety-critical component. A wheel that matches PCD and center bore on paper still needs verification of offset, brake clearance, load rating and mounting hardware for the exact vehicle configuration. We verify fitment per project and never publish a compatibility claim that has not been engineered and confirmed.
BMW Wheel Fitment Questions
What is the BMW bolt pattern for these chassis?
The verified chassis in this guide (G20/G21, G80, G30, G05) use a 5x112 bolt pattern with a 66.6 mm center bore and M14x1.25 wheel bolts.
Does 5x112 mean any 5x112 wheel fits a BMW?
No. Fitment depends on the complete specification — diameter, width, offset, center bore centering, brake clearance, load rating and mounting hardware. PCD alone never proves fitment.
What offset do I need for my BMW?
Offset varies by OEM wheel configuration. Exact ET should be verified for the specific wheel and vehicle setup — we confirm it per project with your vehicle details.
