Help please new rims wont fit
Hey,
So i recently bought some new rims for my 2004 525i but the wheel hubs on my car are exactly the same size as the holes in my rims, I was just wondering if i should just give up or if it's still possible to make them fit.

Are you measuring to arrive at this conclusion? Are the rims new or used? Is there corrosion on either the hub or rim that needs to be cleaned. Get a wire brush or emory to clean them up if that is the case. If that's not it you will need to have the taper enlarged on the wheel or hub. A machine shop can take 0.003-0.004"" off the diameter and they should fit. Use some felpro neversieze to stop gauling. Too much clearance can give you vibration even tho our lug bolts are tapered.
