Would the different PCD not ruin this?

Yes - but I wouldn't want to. Would have to be VERY accurate.

Would you fancy redrilling a set of wheels? Same deal...

Hub hole diameter and overall height is different

calipers / pads are same as BMW. but discs are different on a standard 75 (I think they maybe vented on the rear on a BMW).
Don't know about a 190 though.

So i can use the pads though?

I work for BMW and get a good discount hence my question.
