    Default M-Pars

    Any modifications needed besides tire size change to mount M-pars from an E38 to an 89 535i?

    Nope dont think so.

    As far as i know you only need hubcentric rings when you got wheels from an e39.

    What are the wheel specs? Diameter x width and offset....

    The widths and ET's are different between the E38 & E34 M-Pars. But they both work just fine on E34's when you use the proper sized tire. And as said above should you get E39 M-Pars you'll need hubcentric rings to mount 'em on an E34.

    I only got the rims though, the tires would have been useless to me anyways.

    Any one have a write up on restoring/polishing these rims?
