Well, I'm sure they'll look nice. But these wheels are made for German cars, and they are usually 5x120 bolt pattern. Unlike our japanese cars, we use 5x114.

What other German cars are using a 5x120 bolt pattern? I think VW and Audi are using 5x112, maybe MB too... and Porsche is using 5x130?

Not sure about the others but I know for sure BMW & MBZ is 5x120.
AC Schnitzer really just markets to BMW.
I know Hamann makes parts for other cars like Ferrari.

Yes, there was a M6 there. It was neatly tucked away at a parking lot away from Earl Warren Fairgrounds. Driven by someone from BMW NA most likely. They did the same thing last year, all of a sudden a E60 M5 showed up on the caravan last year. You know there must be plenty of BMW NA employees at Bimmerfest, wandering around.
