Default Wheel specs | Need input/advice

Hi there fellow BMW enthusiasts. I have a line on the following wheels, and wanted to know if they'd fit. I searched the forums for specifics, but still have questions.

WHEELS: Square set, 17 x 8 BBS Style 42 2-Piece wheels, 74.1 hub size, factory wheel on the 5 Series E39 M-Sport Package.


Will they work on a 2008 E61, or should I keep looking? I have the standard 5-spokes, but they're just not that lovely.



My current wheels...

I'm totally open to suggestions...

Thanks in advance,
Anton

Keep looking. The E61 hub bore is 72.5, so they won't fit properly without hub rings. You also have to be aware of the offsets on an xi car. Stay in the range of ET 35 - 45.
