sydande · 04-08-2014, 09:01 PM

My friend have a few spacers that he had left over from his e46, e46's thread type is 12x1.5 where our f30s are 14x1.25, i kno the spacer will fit, but my question is will i be able to use the extended bolts from his car? as our f30s can use previous 3-series rims. thanks for ur help!

No, you will need new wheel bolts!

As you already mentioned the F30 bolts are different in both thread diameter and pitch, M14x1.25 compared to M12x1.5 on older 3 Series.
