Not knowing the offset and center bore on my R60 I was wondering if anybody knows if there are any factory/OEM 5 bolt BMW wheels that fit the Countryman since it's a 5 lug set up as well? Would like a 2nd set of wheels and there are so many BMW take-offs out there at good prices I thought that might be an inexpensive solution for a 2nd set of wheels.

 

I believe the bolt pattern is the same (5 x 120) so many will fit. Offset is another question but several people went with BMW wheels for the CM. I was looking for a set from a 1 series and ended ordering aftermarket from tire rack so I can't tell you how it turned out.

There is wheels and tires section of the Countryman forum. Did you search there? Been a while since I went to that section.

 

The 5x120 lug pattern is the same, and so is the 72.5mm center bore. The issue is that BMWs are rear wheel drive and the offset is different. From what I've seen, the Countryman uses an offset of 34-35 and BMW wheels have an offset of 50. I've seen pics of them mounted on a Countryman and they look great. From what I recall, the wheels used were from a 1 series.

 

BMW X1's wheels will fit fine...

most other BMW wheels u will have problem with the offset...

 

The stock R60 17"s are 7.0" wide with 50mm offset.

The stock R60 18"s and 19"s are 7.5" wide with 52mm offset

 

and the mini countryman 16" wheels are 6.5" wide with 46mm offset

i bought a set of 16" wheels from ecs tuning for my winter tires

Is that true for the stock JCW 18" wheels as well?
