BMW 7 Series — Bolt Pattern
The 7 Series ran 5×120 on a 72.6mm hub from the E32 through the F01, switching thread from M14×1.5 to the finer M14×1.25 around the F01 (2009); the G11 (2016) then dropped to a smaller 5×112/66.6mm pattern, mirroring the same-era 5 Series change.

Common questions
What bolt pattern does the BMW 7 Series have?
The 7 Series ran 5×120 on a 72.6mm hub from the E32 through the F01, switching thread from M14×1.5 to the finer M14×1.25 around the F01 (2009); the G11 (2016) then dropped to a smaller 5×112/66.6mm pattern, mirroring the same-era 5 Series change. Check the table above for your exact generation, and confirm against a wheel or the owner's handbook before buying.
Will other wheels fit my 7 Series?
Only wheels with exactly the same bolt pattern — bolt pattern has no working tolerance. The centre bore must also be equal to or larger than the hub (a larger bore just needs spigot rings). A different pattern needs bolt-on adapters, which also push the wheel outward and change the track.
What is the centre bore on a 7 Series?
66.6 mm on the current car — earlier generations may differ, see the table. The bore is the hole in the middle of the wheel; it has to clear the hub spigot or sit on a spigot ring.
Bolt pattern is only part of fitment. The offset (ET) decides where the wheel sits in the arch — work that out with the wheel offset calculator. For tyre sizing on a new wheel width, use the tire size calculator.
