BMW 4 Series wheel fitment — F32/F33 LCI
Overview
The BMW 4 Series is a range of compact executive cars manufactured by BMW since 2013. The first generation (F32/F33/F36) was produced from 2014 to 2020, featuring coupé, convertible, and Gran Coupé body styles. It succeeded the E92/E93 models of the fifth-generation BMW 3 Series range and shares many features with the F30 3 Series. The engines available include turbocharged inline-3, inline-4, and inline-6 petrol or diesel options.
BMW 4 Series wheel fitment
BMW 4 Series wheel fitment for the BMW 4 Series F32/F33 LCI (2017–2020): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x120 |
| Centre bore | 72.6 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14 x 1.25 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 140 Nm |
| Seat type | tapered |
| Factory setup | staggered |
| TPMS | direct |
| Run-flat | Yes |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 6.5J–8.5J | ET24–ET45 |
| Rear (staggered) | 8J–10J | ET33–ET50 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
UK popularity & demand
Based on DfT VEH0124 vehicle-parc data (2025), there are approximately 113,829 BMW 4 Series on UK roads, placing it in the top 3% of car models by volume across our fitment database.
That makes BMW 4 Series wheel fitment a high-demand spec to keep in stock. It is one reason we track it here.
