No, BMW use different hub spigot diameters on different models. You have to get spacers to fit a 72.6mm hub. Any smaller it won't fit and any larger it won't centre.

E9x 3 series are 72.6mm, amongst others, my spacers are from my old 335i.

You'll need extended bolts and the M5/6 uses M14x1.25 thread, most other BMW are M12x1.5 so won't fit. The new bolts and locking bolts cost me more than the spacers!
