    ET brand wheels 15x8.5 5x120

    ET brand wheels, not to common i believe. Hard to find to much info on the company, as i believe they were in the 70's and 80's.
    These rims are 15x8.5 with a 4 inch backspace 5x120 with a weight of 15.8lbs. Would probably work with older 5 series or 5 lug swapped car with an aggressive fitment. All in good shape some light scratches, the gold centers were repainted at some point in there life. Looking for $650obo plus shipping.

    For people who don't know how to calculate offset from backspace, these wheels come out to an offset of about -13. That's as close as I can get without actually knowing the overall width of the wheel. OP, if you get me a measurement from the outside of the inner lip to the outside of the outer lip, I can get you a better idea of the offset. But I'm almost positive it is going to be a negative offset wheel.

    Cool wheels though. Pretty sure they will be a tough sell due to the limited market they appeal to.

    GLWS nonetheless

      The overall width of the wheel is a little under 9.5". I came out with about a -19 offset. yeah the market will be a limited, but if i had a e28 id try stuffing them under the arches. thanks

        I'd also be willing to trade for a 70's Japanese motorcycle, if in the area. Like cb's, kz400, xs400, xs650. If you have one that's a little run down and going to waste.

          Your math is right on. Negative 19 offset.

            I'd also trade for 4x114.3 wheels. Have an old British car I'm building that could use a set of sneakers.

                these are pretty sweet. 16x9.5 -19 is definitely doable on an E28, though will be very aggresive. I run a 16x9 -10 Gotti J55A and looking for some more poke.

                      I had a set of these on a chevy conversion van I had in 1996. The would look smooth on an e28!

                          sorry, misread your post. 8.5 -19 would be a nice setup.

                            Yeah figured you did. If I had a 5 series I'd be trying them out.
