BMW M5 F90 wheel fitment

The F90 M5 moved to 5x112 and M xDrive, so wheel choice is as much about matching front and rear rolling diameters as it is about looks. Most owners stay on 20 inches and go a little wider and lower in offset for a flush fit, while a few run 19-inch sets for comfort or winter.

5x112 bolt pattern · 66.6 mm centre bore · Stock wheels: 19 × 9.5, 19 × 10.5, 20 × 9.5, 20 × 10.5 inch · Stock tyres: 275/40 R19, 285/40 R19, 275/35 R20, 285/35 R20

Popular community setups

Starting points for a build. Read the notes with each setup, especially if your car is lowered or has different brakes.

20-inch flush stagger

Front
20 × 10 inch, ET22 · 275/35 R20
Rear
20 × 11 inch, ET24 · 285/35 R20

A common forged-wheel fitment that fills the arches without spacers. Keeping the factory tyre sizes preserves the front-to-rear rolling diameter that M xDrive expects. Owners report 10 inches as the widest front that sits flush without camber or arch work.

19-inch OEM+ stagger

Front
19 × 9.5 inch, ET25
Rear
19 × 11 inch, ET40

Apex's OEM+ fitment. Needs at least a 5 mm rear spacer, with 12 mm recommended. Confirm the wheel design is approved for your brake package before ordering a 19-inch set.

Width and offset guidance

Offset range

Check the exact setup

There is no confirmed range for this car yet. Compare a known wheel with your proposed size and measure both sides.

Common width limit

10 inch front / 11 inch rear

Owners report 20x10 front and 20x11 rear as the widest flush fit. 10.5-inch fronts have been run but may need camber, suspension changes or rolled arches.

These figures belong to the setups described here. Combining the widest wheel with either end of the offset range does not guarantee a safe fit. For how ET moves the wheel in and out, read wheel offset explained; for how far the tyre can sit out, see flush, poke and tucked fitment.

Clearance notes

  • The F90 uses 5x112 with a 66.6 mm bore. F10 M5 wheels (5x120, 72.6 mm) do not fit without adapters.
  • Wheel bolts are M14x1.25, tightened to 140 Nm.
  • M xDrive is sensitive to front and rear tyre height. Keep the rolling diameters of any staggered pair close to the factory relationship.
  • Carbon-ceramic brakes need more clearance behind the spokes than the steel brakes, so a wheel that clears a steel-braked car may not clear a carbon-ceramic one. Check the brake template for the exact design.
  • Production ended in 2023 ahead of the G90 M5; the M5 CS was built for 2021–2022 only.
  • Check full steering lock and suspension travel with the car loaded. Match wheel load rating, tyre load and speed ratings, fastener seats and brake clearance.
