So-- my best friend's kid just got his first car (he still only has his permit)-- a 2010 e90 328xi X-Drive w/ MT.

If I didn't know better, I'd *swear* that my buddy's wife and I had bumped uglies-- the kid takes after me with cars FAR too much to be my (mechanically ignorant) best friend's kid.

Anyhow, we spent all day yesterday doing a full brake job, replacing filters, replacing a tail light, etc. and the kid had a little troubler seating the wheels on the center bore and using bolts (he actually asked "Where are the studs?")

I thought I'd get him a couple of centering pins to help him out, but I'm not sure if they're 1.25 or 1.5 pitch as I know next to nothing about a 2010 e90.

A little help?

TIA--

R.

M12x1.5. Maybe just buy a stud conversion kit? I run studs on my E36M3 and F90M5 and also ran them on my E90M3.

He's sixteen and the car has lots of more important things that need work that he can spend his summer job money on.

The pins will work just fine for him.

Thanks-- I wasn't sure between 1.25 and 1.5.
