OEM Style 42 size increasement

[A.C.SCHNITZER]

Hi Fanatics

Can BMW OEM BBS 16' Style 42 mags be increased to 17', Maybe deep-dish?

 

[Rayzor]

Like these?

 

[A.C.SCHNITZER]

Yes Rayzor, that's the look I am talking about, I love these mags :blowheart:

HI tech mag repair does it.

Sell them, and buy the 17" version. The e39 540i LCi came with them std.

It will be cheaper

I've heard those are very very hard to find and people don't like to part with them :thumbdo: Think this might cost less in the long run.

To the O.P one of our forum sponsors is The Wheel Shop. Depending on your area, I'm sure they'd be able to assist a Fanatic. Check the advertiser forums and phone through.

Good luck!

E39 ones offset might be too aggressive

also the Centre bore much bigger

Thanks Bud, the E39 17 oem are extremely scarce. I am based in Pta, if I can't get a reputable mag repair around Pta, I will go to The Wheel Shop. :ty:

Please forgive my ignorance but how do you increase the diameter of a 16" rim to make it 17":=):

What you want is Z3 facelift wheels. They are 17inch E36 bore and offset.

Beat me to it. Gizmo is right. You're looking for the z3 wheel but the difference is the z3 wheel has the studs and a little lip.

What you need are 18" Rezax!
