Purpose and BMW fitment

The presented wheel rim has been designed as a rear axle component for BMW vehicles, maintaining factory construction standards. The properly selected diameter, width, offset, bolt pattern, and center bore allow for correct wheel seating in the wheel arch and compatibility with the stock suspension and braking system. As a result, the rim can be used both as a replacement for a damaged wheel and as a component to restore the vehicle's original appearance after modifications.

Construction and technical properties

The rim is made of aluminum, which helps reduce unsprung mass compared to steel solutions. The properly selected rim width and diameter allow for the installation of tires with a sporty profile, ensuring a good contact patch with the road surface. The applied offset and five mounting holes, combined with the correct bolt pattern diameter, enable stable wheel attachment to the hub, which is important for steering precision and driving safety.

Benefits of using a BMW aluminum wheel rim

Using an original aluminum wheel rim on a BMW E87 allows for maintaining the stylistic consistency of the body and wheels, while keeping driving parameters in line with the manufacturer's specifications. The main advantages of such a construction include:

• maintaining factory suspension geometry,
• the ability to install tires with an appropriately selected profile,
• a favorable strength-to-weight ratio due to the aluminum material,
• compatibility with stock suspension and brake components.

The used nature of the product allows for an economical restoration of full wheel functionality while maintaining the original BMW specification.

Condition, verification, and service application

The rim is in used condition, which is important when selecting parts for repair or replacement. Such components are often used in workshops specializing in BMW vehicles as a solution to restore the efficiency of the running gear after mechanical or road damage.
