These are vehicle-year records whose recorded OEM ranges overlap this 2016 BMW M5. Overlap is not a guarantee that a specific wheel will install. Selected-wheel comparison is in the calculator below.
Evaluated 99 donor years. Listed 24 eligible overlaps (not all evaluated years are compatible). Showing all listed.
Years grouped because recorded compatibility evidence is equivalent. Each year keeps its own page.
Approximate position vs the mid OEM package: outer change -1.67 mm, inner change -4.68 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.

Recorded vehicle-side thread for the 2016 BMW M5 is M14x1.25. This donor year is recorded as M12x1.5. That is the vehicle stud/nut thread, not an intrinsic thread stamped on the wheel. Hardware must match this vehicle’s studs and the selected wheel’s seat and engagement. Existing hardware may be reusable if it already matches. Seat style is not in this dataset, so products are not a verified fit.
Dataset suggestionHub-centric rings ≈ 74.1 → 72.6 mm – not a verified installation requirement.
Hub-centric rings of about 74.1 → 72.6 mm mm may be relevant if the wheel bore is larger than the hub; clearance is not verified. Donor width/offset sits outside the known OEM envelope for this vehicle.

Donor width/offset sits outside the known OEM envelope for this vehicle. Precomputed data suggested a spacer; geometry was re-checked against OEM envelope. Recorded vehicle-side thread differs (M12x1.5 on the donor year vs M14x1.25 on the target vehicle). Hardware must match the target vehicle’s studs and the selected wheel’s seat. Existing hardware may be reusable if it already matches. Seat style is not confirmed in this dataset.

The values below reflect data available for at least one 2016 BMW M5 configuration. This may be a partial set. BMW often offered multiple OEM wheel and tire packages in the same model year. Always confirm your exact trim and option package using the on-page calculator and your owner manual or dealer VIN lookup.
| Bolt pattern | 5x120 |
| Center bore | 72.6 mm |
| Thread size | M14 x 1.25 |
| OEM rim diameter | 20 in |
| OEM rim width | 9.0 in |
| OEM offset ET | 32 mm |
| Backspacing | 5.76 in |
| OEM tire section width | 265 mm |
| OEM tire aspect ratio | 40 |
| OEM tire rim diameter | 19 in |
Note: The tire size line shows a 19 inch tire diameter while the wheel line shows a 20 inch rim. This indicates multiple factory packages existed or the dataset is partial. Do not mix a 19 inch tire on a 20 inch wheel. Verify your car’s original sizes on the door jamb placard, in the owner manual, or by VIN with a BMW dealer. Then use the calculator on this page to compare any new setup against your verified OEM baseline.
If your 2016 BMW M5 is on a 19 inch OEM tire such as 265 section width with 40 aspect ratio, the overall diameter is your reference. When plus-sizing to a 20 inch wheel, use the calculator to select a tire size that keeps overall diameter near the OEM value while maintaining adequate inner and outer clearance.
What is the bolt pattern for the 2016 BMW M5?
The known bolt pattern is 5x120. Match this exactly for direct fit. If using adapters, account for the adapter thickness in your effective offset and verify hardware length and seat type.
My wheel shows a larger center bore than 72.6 mm. Is that a problem?
Not if you use proper hub centric rings that step the wheel bore down to 72.6 mm. Rings reduce vibration and help the wheel seat properly. Metal or high quality polymer rings are acceptable when sized correctly.
Can I run 20 inch wheels if my car came with 19s?
Possibly. BMW offered different packages, but you must keep overall tire diameter close to your OEM baseline and verify inner and outer clearances with the calculator. Confirm your original sizes by VIN or door placard first.
What offset range works on the 2016 M5?
Offset tolerance depends on wheel width and brake clearance. Use the calculator to compare your candidate width and ET to the OEM baseline shown on your car’s placard. Ensure safe inner clearance and avoid fender poke. If unsure, physically test fit.
Do I need new lug bolts?
If the wheel uses a different seat type or you add spacers, you may need different or longer M14 x 1.25 bolts. Verify seat type and required shank length with the wheel or spacer manufacturer and your BMW documentation.
Will this setup clear my brakes?
Brake clearance varies by wheel design. Compare inner barrel and spoke clearance using the calculator, then perform a physical test fit. Do not assume clearance based on diameter alone.
What torque should I use on the lug bolts?
Refer to your BMW owner manual or dealer service information for the exact torque spec and tightening procedure. After installation, re-torque after 50 to 100 miles.
Is the 2016 M5 staggered from the factory?
Some trims may be staggered. Check the door jamb tire placard for front and rear sizes. If staggered, evaluate front and rear fitments separately in the calculator.
Wheel interchange depends on more than bolt pattern. Where data is available, this site compares recorded OEM values:
A normal wheel spacer does not change bolt pattern. Hub rings cannot enlarge a wheel bore that is smaller than the hub. Brake clearance and tire package fitment still require vehicle-specific checks when not confirmed in the dataset.
