    There are plenty of light weight steel wheels from Bart and Aero Wheel. but they are not D.O.T. approved or street Legal. Leave you liable for anything that could happen if you get in an accident.
    well they arent legal, but we have shop here which makes them as we ask.. with experience of 20 years, he know how to do it.. i have also made couple set myself, they aint that hard, if you have good welding machine and rotating machine

            Here is 8,5x17 front with et13 and 10 wide rear et 15, tyres are 235/45

              My car is now under construction, havent done the 5 lug pattern yet.

              If you want to get best driveability, you should use 14-15", wide something aorund 7" and et 25-40. you should keep the centerline of tyre the same as original..

                In this photo that the height, from about 2 cm away. That stance would be cool
                I have already bought a 7x17 inch ET 35 wheels so I thought if there was something the size of tires options. I do not care to buy 205/40-17 tires I know that they have been terrible on the street

                      Ok, On my first ix the tyres I guess/can remeber 205/40-17, wheels were 7x17. I remember because it was the suspension of a terrible run at streets. I'm thinking of something like 215/40 or 215/45 if you just fit rotate
                      How did they feel driven??

                        Ill say that offset matters more than raisin profile from 40 to 45... as close to FWD wheel as possible.. it was better when 205/55-15, 7x15 et13

                              A few question

                              Will these wheels fit. What kind of tyres fit those wheels+can roll under car:D
                              -16 "x 8.0" 4x100/ET20
                              Fit in any way, no matter whether those come out or touch the fender.
                              As long as the fit to turn. I am grateful for the answer

                                those 16x8 MIGHT fit due to et 20 but i bet they will rub on the frame rails when turning the front wheels. I hate rota's they are so ugly on any bmw.

                                No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.
