Wheel balance issues with wheels from a later model BMW
Posted: Feb 15, 2006 11:45 PM
PROBLEM: My car has serious wheel balance issues since I put wheels from a later series (e.g., E39 M5 replicas) with the same bolt pattern on it.
CAUSE: BMW wheels are hubcentric, and you need hubcentric adapters to make some of the later wheels work properly on an E28.
SOLUTION: Purchase and install 74mmx72.56mm hubcentric adapters (rings) for each wheel, e.g. part no. A-670 from Tire Rack.
