BMW M4 wheel fitment — F82/F83
Overview
The BMW M4 is a high-performance version of the BMW 4 Series automobile developed by BMW's motorsport division, BMW M GmbH. It was introduced in 2014 as part of the renumbering that splits the coupé and convertible variants of the 3 Series into the 4 Series. The M4 replaced those variants of the BMW M3 with upgrades including an upgraded engine, suspension, exhaust system, brakes, and weight reduction measures such as increased use of carbon fiber. Built on the F32 4 Series platform but featuring unique components, it offers two transmission choices: a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch (M-DCT) transmission.
BMW M4 wheel fitment
Start with the hub. The BMW M4 F82/F83 spec table gives the bolt pattern and bore; the second table is the aftermarket window for BMW M4 wheel fitment.
| 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 | 8.5J–10J | ET9–ET45 |
| Rear (staggered) | 9.5J–10.5J | ET23–ET50 |
Go wider and the offset has to rise with it, about 8 to 10 ET per extra 1J, or the wheel pokes past the arch. The fit-check settles the exact offset and any spacer.
UK popularity & demand
Based on DfT VEH0124 vehicle-parc data (2025), there are approximately 19,991 BMW M4 on UK roads, placing it in the top 10% of car models by volume across our fitment database.
