2019 BMW i3 — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the bolt pattern for a 2019 BMW i3?
The 2019 BMW i3 uses a 5x112 bolt pattern (also called lug pattern or PCD). The center bore is 66.6mm and the offset is 25-40mm.
What other years of BMW i3 have the same bolt pattern as the 2019?
The BMW i3 uses the 5x112 pattern from 2014 through 2021. Wheels from any of these model years are dimensionally compatible with the 2019, provided the offset and center bore also match.
What does 25-40mm offset mean for the 2019 i3?
An offset of 25-40mm means the wheel's mounting surface is 25-40mm away from its centerline. Changing this value drastically can affect suspension geometry and wheel bearing wear on your BMW.
How do I measure the bolt pattern on my 2019 BMW?
The 2019 i3 uses a 5x112 pattern. For 4, 6, or 8-lug wheels, measure center-to-center across opposite holes. For 5-lug, measure from the center of one hole to the back of the opposite hole.
What is the factory wheel offset for a 2019 BMW i3?
The OEM offset for the 2019 i3 is typically around 25-40mm. Depending on wheel width, a deviation of ±5mm is usually acceptable, but verify suspension clearance.
Will wheels from another BMW fit my 2019 i3?
Only if they share the exact same 5x112 bolt pattern, a compatible offset, and a center bore equal to or larger than 66.6mm.
Fitment Checklist Before You Buy Wheels
- Confirm bolt pattern carefully. 5x112 is often confused with other common 5-lug patterns.
- This fitment uses a wide offset range. Check brake clearance and fender clearance before buying wheels.
- Torque lugs in a star pattern to 100 ft-lbs (135 Nm), then re-check torque after 50-100 km (30-60 miles).
Editorial Fitment Notes
