Yes, but...

Wheels from the E34 fit the E28 perfectly -- they have
the same offset requirements.  Check to see if "ET20"
(or 22 or something close) is stamped on the wheels.
That is the correct offset for your car.

If you've got stock E34 wheels, the problem is
somewhere else (unless one or more is bent).
