ive just got my hands on some BMW E90 alloys for dirt cheap and reckon theyd look top notch on the ibiza.
HOWEVER obviously the stud patterns dont match.
From what i have found out (if its incorrect please correct me) the seat is PCD 4x 100, ET 35, and centrebore 57.1

The BMW wheels are PCD 5x120, ET 35, centrebore 72.5 (tyre size 225/55/16)

Ive done some searches elsewhere but i dont trust anywhere else as much as the SEAT forum themself :p

My question is, will they fit? Of course im going to have to get a hold of some adapters but will the offset etc fit the car?

thanks alot guys :D

With the adapters its possible

BMW wheels will likely be wide though so with adapters they may stick out, you would have to take the width of the wheels, along with width of adapters etc into consideration

Jaycupra51, why do you reckon it wont work?

And Berg theyre 7inches wide if that helps? Also the adapters can be made to like 15/20mm

Cheers for the help though guys

I've used a few wheel calculators and the sort to see what the difference is between the ones i have and these new ones. With the new ET of 15 (because of the adapters) it leaves the clearance from tyre to suspension bigger than before. But it sticks out of the arches by a bit.

So it appears they will fit, but i might need a smaller profile than what i have to make sure they dont fill the wheel well too much.
I have 205/50/16 at the moment, could i replace those with 195/45/16?

Cheers guys

Decided to give up on these wheels :p ive got UNI in a matter of weeks and cant really afford the adapters and lower profile tyres to get them to fit :(

These are the wheels.

They stick out a fair bit, ive taken into account the adapters.

Other than the tyres, i think they would look good.

Ill either sell them or keep them until i can afford the adapters etc.
