Upgrade from 18" to 19" staggered: Can I use the same bolts?

fishfreakMaddin · 10-22-2019, 12:51 PM

Hi team,

I'm excited to be a new member here and look forward to many great conversations!

My name is Martin and I'm the proud owner of a 2017 440i xDrive that came with 18" wheels (https://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Whee...h=Hyper+Silver). Now I want to swap out the wheels for a staggered set up of BMW Style 407 wheels (https://www.autorimshop.com/bmw-440i...wheel-rim.html).

I'm wondering if I'll be able to use the same bolts or if the staggered setup needs different ones for some reason. Apologies for the newbie question.

Same bolt.... yes

New longer bolt of your going to have spacers.

Thanks, Gen13 F36!

For spacers, I have been thinking of 12mm in the front and 15mm in the rear. Any thoughts?

Also, any preferred brands you recommend for spacers? Been looking at Burger Motorsports.
