Fitting wheels on a BMW 2800CS-3.0CS E9

A BMW 2800CS-3.0CS E9 (1968–1975) uses a 5x120 PCD and a centre bore of 72.6 mm. Any wheel must match the vehicle's PCD exactly: there is no tolerance, unless you use a PCD adapter.

  • PCD: 5x120 required. See all vehicles with 5x120.
  • Centre bore: the wheel must have a centre bore of 72.6 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 72.6 mm.
  • Fixings: thread M12x1.5, tightened to 85 Nm. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
  • Tyres: original fitment is 195/70R14. For another size, check the diameter difference with the equivalence calculator (under 3 % recommended).
