GreenCactus Posted May 23, 2018 Report Posted May 23, 2018 I can’t find a straight answer on this... Will wheels from a Paceman/Countyman fit an F56? I know the bolt pattern is the same, but I’m not sure if there’s more to it.

I know the bolt pattern is the same, but I’m not sure if there’s more to it. I checked with Mark and he thinks they'll be fine but you probably don't want to go bigger than 17's. He also said that there might be an offset but if you're not going with a bigger rim you should be fine. He also said that since you don't have JCW brakes he's not seeing an issue.

They are both 5 lug, but a gen2 countryman/paceman have a 5x120 pattern, the new gen3 are 5x112, and are not a match. a gen3 countryman has the same 5x112 so those would work. I have no idea why they changed from the standard BMW 5x120, wait I do they were tried of gen2 countryman and paceman owner buying BMW wheels from craigslist. No money in that. 1975 Mini 1000, 998cc A+ w/ K&N air filter, 10" Mamba wheels
1975_mini Posted May 25, 2018 Report Posted May 25, 2018 5x112 is used by VW/Audi if you want to watch for people that pulled those off, also popular cars that people switch rims so likely lots of 3rd party options 1975 Mini 1000, 998cc A+ w/ K&N air filter, 10" Mamba wheels
GreenCactus Posted May 29, 2018 Author Report Posted May 29, 2018 Thanks Corey! Russ sold his Paceman and I was going to buy his extra set of wheels. Oh well... 1
