Hi Guys,
I'm trying to sell my 138 rims. I use them as a winter setup for my 545i.
The potential buyer has a 2008 535 xi.
I heard from BMW that my regular non-xi rims will not fit on an xi model. Is that true for even the 138 rims? I thought they were standard?
The only # on the back of the rim is 6 762 001. Can anyone confirm please?
I've attached pics of my rims that I am trying to sell.
thanks again for all your help & suggestions!

That shows these rims having a 20 offset. I think those wheels were made with a 43 offset which is the OEM offset for the 535xi. You need to find out the offset on that wheel.
According to REAL OEM it says the offset is 20 which won't work with the XI.
