Most likely from an E39 so they'll need a hub-centric spacer ring.

I just got a set. I've wanted them ever since I got my E34. Hub on wheels is 74.1mm. Hub on E34 is 72.56mm. Hubcentric rings fill the gap.

Just be sure they hold air,the cost of new seal and bolts is unbelieveable!You can cheat and varnish spray the inside but it will not last that long.

Whoa whoa whoa. I spy a 255 tire back there, meaning a 9" wheel, meaning...

those are staggared Style 5s, very rare. Probably E34 fitment.

Same wheels as I have. I'd jump on those.

yes, staggered style 5's, j8 fronts and j9 rears. and not a scratch on them. so, yes , i'm prepared to go any length to get them. the only problem is that the seller wants 18" m-pars and i gotta wait for him to get those or get them for him and swap. anyway , there is no way i'll miss out on them...

These are two part wheels and don't have a seal. I'm guessing you are thinking of BBS's 3 part wheels with a rubber seal to vary the rim width. Now those are a pain in the arse !
