is there any chance in hell that a 5x4.75 pattern would fit on a BMW or not? Im sure its a no, but im just making sure that no one has heard of such a feat.

4.75 inches = 120.65 millimeters, so I don't see why it couldn't...

I really hope you are not kidding. I found some very decent rims that can be used temporarily that I want to buy, but i have heard from other respectable members that it will not fit. you are in my top 5 of smart rim people, so i have to believe you on this. It would definitely help if i could find anyone who managed to do this.

Check offsets and center bores first please so we dont have problems there

yea, i know that. The offset should work(et 35), i know I more than likely need to roll the rear, but its something that will be done anyways because big rear tires are fun. The centerbore I'm not as concerned about because I could either have a rim shop bore it out, or just use hubcentric rings. right?

Yes, you can do both to the centerbore but you might want to find out just to make sure that tirerack carries that size of a hubcentric ring or else you are SOL!

Also, your tire shop wont want to take TOO much off of the centerbore.
