19" legacy BMW rims on F15

[grahammeeres]

Wondering if these 2001 rims will fit my f15 (2017 x5d)

they are the right bolt pattern (5x120) but the hub size is a bit bigger and the offset is a few mm out.

• Bolt pattern the same...no problem
• Offset “range” is very similar when compared to the f15 wheel’s offset range offered by BMW...so no problem there either
• Hub size is incorrect (actually your f15 wheel hubs are LARGER than the center bore from the e53 X5 wheels (e53=72.56mm vs f15=74.1mm)

The problem will be that the e53 wheels won’t fit onto your f15’s wheel hub because the center bore of the e53 wheel is too small. You’ll need to have the e53 wheel’s bored out to fit the f15’s larger wheel hub. Or you could use wheel spacers that have hubs that can fix the center bore difference...but that will be an extra expense.

Since you didn’t post the specs...it looks like they are BMW wheel style 132. If this is true...then see their specs below (also don’t know if they are a square set or a staggered set):

Series
X5 E53 9x19 front ET 48mm (offset)
X5 E53 10x19. back ET 45mm (offset)

If you want to expand to BMW X5 legacy wheels...the e70 & f15 X5 share all the same specs (offset range, wheel bolt pattern, hub/center bore size). This does NOT apply to either chassis X5M models or e71/f16 X6 models which have different hub sizes on the front vs the rear axles)
