1998 BMW 740i Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1998 BMW 740i rolls on a 5x120 bolt pattern with 16x8 wheels at 20 offset from the factory. You can fit wider sizes up through 18 inches, choosing from widths between 7 and 8.5 inches across 16, 17, and 18-inch diameters. Since your car runs square fitment, any compatible size works front and rear without worrying about staggered setup.
Remember that only 5x120 wheels will fit your 740i's hub—verify bolt pattern before ordering. Your center bore measures 72.6mm, so use hub-centric rings if your wheel's bore is larger. Aggressive offsets or wider widths risk contact with fenders and suspension, so stick within the listed sizes to keep clearance safe.
Every wheel we stock for your 740i bolts on true and ships free across the lower 48. Brands like Work Wheels, Enkei, OHM, and Heritage Wheel all carry fitments ready to go.
