The 1987 BMW 735i Base comes standard with fourteen-inch by six-and-a-half-inch wheels wearing a plus-twenty offset.

We stock options from Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, OHM, Aodhan, Petrol, KATANA RACING, Niche 1PC, and Enkei—with sizes ranging from fourteen to sixteen inches across multiple widths. Whether you're seeking a subtle refresh or a bold visual transformation, our carefully curated selection ensures you'll find exactly what your classic BMW deserves.
1987 BMW 735i Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1987 BMW 735i Base rolls on a 5x120 bolt pattern with a stock setup of 14x6.5 at a 20-millimeter offset. You can upgrade through multiple diameter and width combinations: fourteen-inch wheels in 6, 6.5, and 7-inch widths, or step up to fifteens and sixteens in various widths ranging from 6 to 8 inches. Since this model runs square fitment, your choice of width and offset depends purely on your preferred appearance and performance goals.
That 5x120 bolt pattern is exclusive to this application—no other pattern will mount safely. The hub-centric bore measures 72.6 millimeters, so use hub-centric rings if your chosen wheel's center bore exceeds that specification. Aggressive offsets or excessive widths risk contact with fenders and suspension components, so consider how far you're stepping beyond stock dimensions before finalizing your selection.
Every wheel we list for your 735i Base is verified bolt-on ready and ships free across the lower 48 states. We stock compatible options from Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, OHM, Aodhan, Petrol, KATANA RACING, Niche 1PC, and Enkei, giving you proven brands to choose from.
