Do F30 18" winters fit the G20?

While thinking about new winter tyres for my current F30, I just wondered if the 400M winter wheels could be used in future on a G20 (say M340i or 330d) with blue brakes?

Cheers

Fairly certain that the wheels won’t fit...

It’s a sign, time to change...

PCD on the F series is 120, it's 112 on the G series. Had to ditch my winters when I switched to the 5 series.

I like your thinking - If I can't keep my winters I should probably buy an M5 instead...

Correct, and centre bore is smaller on Gxx too.

Definitely not unfortunately, as stated above. And with the G20 being so new there aren't any used sets to pick up for reasonable price.

I ended up buying an Autec set from Mr Winter wheels for a lot less than the BMW ones.

Wheels were £540 and then I bought TPMS valves on eBay for £70 and then ordered the continental TS860 S star marked runflat winter tyres for £560 delivered and then paid a local tyre place to fit them. About £1200 all in

Only just had them fitted yesterday, fitter didn't say anything so presume so. Will check pressures in a few days to be sure.
