Technical Characteristics of the BMW E87 Alloy Wheel

This wheel belongs to the Wheels category and is made of aluminum, offering a favorable strength-to-weight ratio. It is designed for mounting on the rear axle, with appropriately selected width, diameter, offset, and bolt hole pattern. This allows the rim to work with factory hubs, brakes, and tires, maintaining correct suspension geometry and driving stability.

The wheel's mounting parameters – diameter, width, offset, number, and diameter of bolt holes – have been selected according to BMW standards for this vehicle axle. This simplifies the configuration of the wheel set, the selection of tires with the appropriate profile, and ensures the correct positioning of the wheel in the wheel arch without body modifications.

Refurbished OEM Wheel – A Functional Solution for BMW

The presented wheel is a refurbished item, meaning it has undergone a process to restore its full functional capacity while retaining key technical parameters. This type of solution allows you to:

• maintain compliance with the factory BMW specification,
• preserve a consistent appearance of the vehicle's axle when replacing a single wheel,
• optimize repair costs compared to purchasing a new rim,
• reduce the risk of balancing issues and axial runout compared to random aftermarket replacements.

Thanks to the use of aluminum, the wheel interacts well with the suspension system, contributing to precise handling and the car's response to uneven surfaces. This is particularly important for BMW vehicles, where proper wheel parameters directly influence driving characteristics.

Application and Selection of the Wheel for BMW 1 Series E87

The BMW E87 17'' 7.5J Alloy Wheel 8036938 is designed as a rear rim for specific BMW 1 Series E87 configurations. When selecting, pay attention to:

• mounting axle compatibility (rear of the vehicle),
• wheel diameter and width in relation to currently used tires,
• offset, which affects the wheel's position relative to the wheel arch,
• bolt pattern and diameter to ensure correct hub mounting.

A wheel configured in this way helps maintain proper bearing loads, correct operation of safety systems, and predictable vehicle behavior during braking and dynamic driving. This is especially important for urban and highway driving conditions, where track stability is crucial.
