BMW wheels from an X5 load rating question

[Skyliner33]

Hi,

my google skills are failing to come up with an answer for this.

I am trying t find out the load rating (and name) of these BMW wheels that I believe were on an X5.

BMW style 132 from the first version of the X5 (e53 variant).

Also known as fat 5s.

Are there any numbers cast into the back of the spokes relating to load rating?

 

[Sasquatch]

Look at the axle loadings for the vehicle they came off.

Bmw don't put a load rating on the back if I remember right , used to run X5 tiger claws on our van

So no way of knowing then

@Skyliner33 are you selling them?

Always looked good on a Transporter.

They'll have the part number and the size stamped on the inside ( they'll be 19 x 9j and 10j most likely ) but as mentioned above you'll have to compare axle weights .
And as Pewt says they do always look good on a bus .
If you go for it don't go too wide a tyre on the rear .

I think they are those sizes. But don’t think I will go for them as no idea what their load rating is. Bugger I think they look really nice wheels.

Your call , there are lots of these being used on buses but that doesn't mean that they are load rated sufficiently.

Yes, I appreciate that, but I'd rather get a load rated wheel id I can. Thanks

I found this link to a website that lists the Gross weight of the E53 variants. None are higher than 2685 kg, so while not definitive, it's not looking good.
