OEM Wheels or Aftermarket Wheels

Hello, I am wondering what route I should go with wheels I’ve found some aftermarket wheels out there. But I also love the F90 M5 wheels and I’m not sure if they will fit any thoughts on this?

F90 m5 wheels will not fit on the f10 as they have different lug patterns. If you were to get an adaptor/ spacer to make it work you’d still need the correct offset for it to not rub. I do not remember what the specs were on those wheels though.

On hub-centric vehicles where the wheel "hangs" on the hub and not the lug nuts, I'm a firm believer in OEM wheels. I chased a vibration with aftermarket wheels for many, many miles on a previous hub-centric car. The centering rings that came with the wheels were something like .1mm too large at the hub. The best fitment I could get was .01mm; and at that I still had a bit of a vibration.

There are plenty of OEM wheels that will fit on the F10 and fill the wheel arch a bit better.

F10 M5 wheels are popular, I'm running E60 19" wheels and various people are running F01/02 wheels as well. The F8x wheels fit well too.
