Aftermarket BMW wheels (5x120) on 4th gens PICS
Now that is what I wanted to see... some OEM BMW Wheels on an FBody. That is really cool.
I had purchased some E39 M5 wheels from a Camaro owner who had planned to use them. I ended up selling the rims and taking the tires off, but it would have been nice to see how they would have looked on a Camaro.

So I am planning to put a set of concave BMW wheels on my 99 Trans Am Convertible. I have done quite a bit of research on this but, I have not seen a lot of discussion on offsets. I need to run a 18" to use my tires which are great at this time (also are staggered widths). A set of wheels I found are 18x8.5 (+35) fronts and 18x9.5 (+38) rears. I was wondering if these would fit up without issues. All I had heard was to install the hub centric rings to ensure proper centering of the wheel. I have my Brembos for the front but need new wheels to run them. Thanks guys!

Thank you for the response and the reassurance! I will be ordering them in June....when I get them on, I will post up some pictures. Been doing a lot of TLC work to it (it was a little neglected.)

Thanks! I'm really happy with it. I was thinking of dropping it more next year with RideTech coilovers when the funds become available.

Also, where did you purchase them from? I'm nervous that when I finally come across the right car, I wont be able to find them anymore

I actually didn't have to use eccentric rings. I thought I would, but there's absolutely no vibration at over 100mph. These guys constantly have them buy three get one free and are constantly in and out of stock.
