1991 BMW 318is Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1991 BMW 318is accepts wheels on a 4x100 bolt pattern. The stock setup runs 13x5.5 with a 35-millimeter offset. You can step up through several sizes—13x6, 14x6, 14x6.5, 15x6, 15x6.5, 15x7, 16x7, 17x7, or 17x7.5—all fitting the same square setup without staggered front-to-rear combinations to worry about.
Keep in mind that only the 4x100 bolt pattern works on this E30; nothing else threads on. The hub centers at 57.1 millimeters, so if you pick a wheel with a larger bore, use a hub-centric ring to seat it properly. Avoid aggressive offsets or excessively wide wheels that could interfere with fenders or suspension geometry during full lock or compression.
Every wheel we stock for the 318is bolts on trouble-free and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Check our in-stock inventory from Vors, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Motegi Racing, MST Wheels, Petrol, Enkei, and Shift to find your perfect fitment.
