In a stupid haste I accidentally bought a set of rims. Now because I was too retarded and in a hurry to check but these were rims off a 2001 740i and I'm driving a 1997 540i.
The bore is too small and I'm wondering if it would be safe to take it to a shop and get them to bore it more (excuse my lack of communication) to fit?
No, it wouldn't. You could try welding your calipers on inside out like that guy with the v6 camaro
probably should just sell them
It's safe. Just as long as you have the size of the bore on your 540 and don't go too big.
been trying but no body is biting...selling for 400, lowest 350
>Rep Mpars.
Disgusting.
Also the reason I got these was from my back tire. blew and cracked my rim on the freeway. no one was selling just one obviously so had to buy the set and figured i could use an extra as my spare but not only was the tire too "tall/big?" but the bore was too small....I hope to sell them even at a loss but just wondering cause my "spare" is not a spare but an actual tire just way different sized from the other 3, but how long can i continue using it til i really fuck up again? i'm really poor btw and understand i shouldn't be driving in different sized wheels but i don't have an option atm
Nobodies gonna buy 10yo flaking cracking peeling chrome wheels. Gonna cost 100± just to strip
so....300??
You can either bore the wheel out, machine the hubs on the car down or buy adapter, all of these options will cost a lot.
Prob gonna cost you 1-200 per wheel to get them bored unless you know somebody.
