or in US standard measurement 5 x 4.75". due to the major positive offset of the wheel, like todd said, very few at all. use them on a corvette (provided they clear the brakes) and that's about it. unless you buy wheel adapters.

well the thing is that I have some 20" Boyd Coddington Rims that I have no car to put them on anymore. So I am debating on finding another vehicle to put them on or selling them. I just don't know which vehicles they would fit on, even if it required an adapter of some sort...

BMW's have a 5 x120mm vs. 5 x120.65 for the f-bods but the backspacing is usually so different between the two that I doubt you could find a customer.

I doubt the style would appeal to most Bimmer guys anyway but who knows?

I believe it's for about all BMW's except 318, 320, 323, and 325's around 80's models, which are 4x100mm.

I probably missed some but that should give you a good idea.

He said they were 20" Boyd Coddington Rims, not stock.

Los, stick them in your local paper with the size, and backspacing and what car they were for and you should be able to sell them fairly easy. Many papers will list them for cheap or even free.

Another idea is, if they are in really good shape, you might be able to work out a trade + $ with a local wheel store if you get another car and want some different wheels.

Of course, if you're willing to ship, you can always sell them on here or Ebay.
