1971 BMW 1802 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1971 BMW 1802 uses a 4x100 bolt pattern, and the factory setup is a 13x5.5 wheel at 25 offset. You can step up to larger diameters and widths, including 14-inch and 15-inch options, with compatible sizes ranging from 13x5.5 through 15x7. All fitments remain square across the vehicle, so you won't need to worry about staggered setups.
This BMW requires the 4x100 bolt pattern exclusively—no other pattern will fit. The hub-centric bore measures 57.1 millimeters; if you choose a wheel with a larger bore, use hub-centric rings to ensure proper centering. Aggressive offsets or very wide wheels can risk rubbing against the fender or suspension components, so stay within the tested compatible range to avoid fitment issues.
Every wheel we offer for your 1802 is verified to bolt on correctly and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. In stock now are options from Vors, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Motegi Racing, and others—all ready to fit your classic BMW.
