2016 BMW i3 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 2016 BMW i3 uses a 5x112 bolt pattern shared across all trims. The factory setup runs staggered: 19x5 wheels at 43mm offset up front, paired with 19x5.5 wheels at 53mm offset in the rear. You can upgrade to 20-inch diameter while keeping the staggered configuration, choosing either 20x5 front with 20x5.5 rear, or going square with 20x6 all around.
The i3 accepts only the 5x112 bolt pattern, so verify fitment before ordering. Your hub-centric bore measures 66.6mm; if your chosen wheel has a larger center bore, install hub-centric rings to ensure a proper fit. Pushing offset too far negative or running excessively wide wheels risks contact with fenders and suspension components, so stick within the compatible sizes listed.
Every wheel we sell for your i3 is verified to bolt on and ships free to the lower 48 states. Heritage Wheel, Aodhan, Motegi Racing, Work Wheels, Niche 1PC, Petrol, Rotiform 1PC, and MRR all have options in stock for your fitment right now.
