    iX parts work for swap?

    Just wondering if I could use parts off an iX to swap onto my eta for a 5 lug swap? I have access to one, so if this can work it would be easy. Im thinking the rear parts should work, but unsure on the front. Let me know if this is entirely not possible.

    Also, curious about the AWD: can this be fitted onto any e30, or did the X's have special tranny?
    Thanks :?:

            Its not 5-lug swapped.

            It's impossible to convert a normal e30 to AWD.

              alright he gave me a picture of the wheel. says its special iX wheel? but he wasn't at the shop so didn't get one with the center cap off...


              so these are 4 lug wheels? i was originally interested in them, which is why i started wondering about lug swap etc..

                They are 4 lug but high offset, you would want spacers.
