I would be interested in seeing a GBody with a BMW rim on it :|

These are some of the bmw rims that are put on g bodies. These are the higher end rims though. The ones I plan on getting are only 1150. The ones pictured run from 3g's and up.

these are BMW wheels my brother purchased a few years ago. Right now they are being used on a buddy's 69 Cutlass.

they are 17x8.5 front, and 17x9.5 rear
bolt pattern is 5x120 as opposed to 120.7 on our cars. But they still bolt on...
I don't know enough to get into the mechanics of the fit, but I have noticed the lugs end up getting loose over time.

The ones on the pics & the ones in the video are Forgiato aftermarket 3-piece wheels. Those do not come on BMW's from the factory.

call me crazy, i think a nice set of 15's of almost any wheel with some nice meaty tires with raised white letters is THE best looking wheel for any older american RWD car .... then again people say my tastes are a bit dated but i think its the bees knees

Yes they will fit. BMW wheels are the alternative to getting high ashanti or similar brand rims because they come in staggered fitments. The bolt pattern is different by .7. BMW being 5x120 and g body being 5x120.7. Depending on what rims you get you may need spacers. I would get the hub centric spacers and upgrade my studs just to be safe. Depending on what spacers you run you may also need the longer studs but I am sure some of the aftermarket wheels guy know the maximum before you have to get longer studs.

Most guys are running the 22x9 and 22x10.5 setups of bmws on the g bodies. This is the setup I will be going with on my regal and they are bmw rims so a 16" shouldnt be too much trouble.

the wheel will slide on but you'll be stressing the studs due to the smaller bolt pattern of the BMW wheel. With all the great looking wheels out there I don't see why you'd want to run a wheel that does not properly fit.
