My Ride: 2005 525d m sport auto, titanium silver,leather media pack
first of all thanks to the person who advised me to change the mpg display from us gallon to uk gallon on my e60 525d msport from my enquiry on high fuel consumtion it looks a lot better now.Does anybody know if its possible for the wheels off a late e38 to fit my e60, both are the same size i only want to use 1 of the e38 wheels as a spare as im converting over to standard tyres and dumping the run flats as they are barely legal at moment and a bit pricey to change for new, thanks

If you make sure you have the correct tyre size fitted, no problem.
PCD, bolts and centre bore are the same and offset is pretty much identical, too.
Only problem you will have is that a full size wheel will not fit properly in the space saver spare wheel well.

UK dealers charge around 150,- quid plus the VAT. (? 75,- when specced on the new car)
It's not only the wheel, it's a set of wheel, jack and wheel brace, coming in a molded polystyrene assembly that fits in the wheel well, after taking out the carpeted liner that is in there at the moment.
