ive got 4 oem 18" m3 wheels in decent shape with tires that are about 65-70% left on them, ill snap individual pictures of wheels and tires if anyone is interested.

i dont really know what they are worth so prlly like 600 bucks with tires seems fair

here they are on the car

Will not fit E39s. The have a different hub diameter (larger), so the wheels won’t fit over it.

I’m 100% sure.

E39s and E70s (X5) had a 74.1mm hub diameter, all other 5-lug BMWs (1, 3, 7, X3, E53 X5, etc) have a 72.56mm hub diameter.

Some wheels may or may not fit, especially aftermarket which can have a higher center bore than stock, but almost all of the OEM wheels for the cars have a matched center-bore for the hub

Will these fit a 93 525i that currently has bottlecaps on it? Or are they too large in diameter?

If I recall, only the E39-F10 5-series and the E70 X5 have the bigger center bore.  
E34 5’s should be golden.
