I need to clear something up between a seller and a buyer. I purchased these wheels. Did everything on my part to make the sale happen. Received them and they will NOT fit the E30. Here is a pic of one of them. They are all the same.

There is a large counter bore on the inside face of the wheel. It is approx. 73mm in diameter. They will not work for me. He tells me they will fit. I sent him a pic and said its on me now. I think that is bullshit. I asked to send them back, I'll even EAT the cost of shipping them back. Its just they will NOT fit on the E30 as stated above. He told me to post this. I'm just looking to be fair here. I've never screwed anyone of the sale of anything.Comment

Hope you guys can work this out, but the fitment issues are not surprising.
With that centerbore and offset, to make these work on an e30 you can try contacting Tire Rack. If they still have them, for around $100 or so they will send you the proper 10mm tapered hubcentric spacers that will get you to +25 offset and the 57.1mm centerbore and the extended lugs you will need.1990 325i: slippery slope from DD/DE car to SE30/ITS

Tough call here. He did post the offset (+35), which may require a spacer for these wheels. Someone more qualified than myself in fitment can weigh in on that.
The $100 option Boris posted would be good, although if those pieces are no longer available you can still make the wheels work just fine. If the center bore is 73.1mm (a common size) you can get centering rings which take them down to 57.1mm from Discount/America's Tire for next to nothing. Then test fit the wheels to see if they will fit without rubbing.
From there you may want to source some spacers from a forum member selling them used, or one of the several Forum Sponsors who sell them. The look you want is going to determine the spacer width you need.
Best of luck.Comment

I'm not worried about the offset. Its the c'bore. Especially when he is clearly posting that this is a direct fit for an E30. I wouldn't have bought them. If he said that you need to buy rings and spacers to get them to fit, I would be more understanding. Especially when hes telling me and I quote "I need to learn more about wheels"Tough call here.

Understood. 73.1mm to 57.1mm hub rings are inexpensive, so hopefully the seller will reimburse you for them. IIRC they're only like $20 for a complete set. Hope you guys can get it hammered out.Comment

did you pay with paypal? Real simple here. File a disput and say the item arrived was different than what was described to you. if the seller posted something on here about it being a 57.0 hub, and it's clearly something larger, there's your case right there.
EDIT:
here's your case right here.

Thank you. I've gotten no response from him. That statement is what bothers me the most. I'd hate to go that route.did you pay with paypal? Real simple here.
