Will the 788M wheels fit on a e92 M3

longhorn10 · 12-18-2018, 11:10 AM

Hi,

I'm now looking at putting the 788M wheels from a M2 Competition on my e92 M3. Does anyone know if those wheels will fit?

I wanted to confirm the bolt pattern, etc. would fit. Any help would be appreciated.

Should fit, rear will be sunken in a bit, nothing some spacers can't fix.

I heard the bolts used on the M2Comp are a little thicker than the ones used on the e92 M3. Not positive. That makes me a little concerned that they wouldn't fit. Can anyone else confirm the 788m would fit on the e92 M3.

Yes the thread pitch has changed of the lug bolts on newer BMWs, but the bolt pattern hasn't.

Just use your lug bolts or compatible ones and not the ones from an M2 or others with new style lug bolts.

Raising this thread from the dead. Has anyone done this?

What spacer would be needed for the rear?
