e90 Lug Bolt Size (Stock)

bmwcasino · 02-11-2012, 07:10 PM

I have been searching this for awhile and I find alot of different opinions, but nothing really with either a BMW part number or bmw specifications.

2007 e90 Sedan - Stock Wheels Style 156

I might change them to another stock wheel. If it is a BMW wheel will the stock lugs work or does the length vary from wheel to wheel?

More or less is there a lug specification for stock wheels?

Sorry if it is a repost.

You will be fine with stock bolts on all oem wheels and 99% of the aftermarket wheels

bmwcasino · 02-15-2012, 07:36 PM

well, I guess what I need to know is what is the stock length. I need to replace my rusted one.

Thread lenght on the OEM bolt should be about 25mm, 1 inch.

remmi, is it this? I guess I dont understand the middle number. Is that thread spacing?

Yes, that fits. And the 1.5 is the thread spacing.

Can anyone confirm that the OE bolt is conical seat? If so, do most aftermarket wheels take conical? I have DPE's and have been using my stock bolts.

On my Audi, stock is ball seat. While I can use the stock ball seat ones on my other aftermarket wheels (Rays), they fit better with conical splines.

For stock bolts PM Lawrence on BavarianX, he gave me a good deal on all 20 lug bolts, much less than ECS.

OE bolts are a conical seat. I would say that only about half of the aftermarket wheels we carry re use OE bolts.
