Offset / adapter guru needed! Who can help me out?

[dylanevansmedia]

Recently picked up a set of wheels off an e39 5 series. They're split wheels.. 17 by 8.. Bolt patern 5x112.. Offset is 20. What's the best bet on getting these on my mk5.. Avoiding poke. Thanks in advance!

just put them on and go from there.

You may poke up front but IDK honestly.

You wont need any adapters as MKV's are 5x112 already.

Either he is mistaken or it is a typo, I don't believe BMWs ever came in 5x112, those should be 5x120, smallest adapter ~15mm which would put those fronts at 17x8 +5 which will poke like crazy and look really dumb.

^Correct. They're 5x120

Yes is a typo.. So these wheels just aren't gonna happen is what ur tellin me?

[dylanevansmedia]

What about just pulling the fenders? how much would I need to come out to tuck these?

[JettaGT8V80]

17x8 et 5 isn't gonna happen

get different wheels or red rill them

you would need to add about an inch of fender to get them to tuck and since its only a 8 stretching isn't gonna happen with tires unless you can find like a 165/45/17
