    What is the name/specs of these wheels?

    I'm getting an e36 with the earlier M wheels on it but I can't find any information on what their name or their specs... here is a pic.
    Thanks for any information.

        correct and correct... if staggered 17 x 8.5 rears.

        i'm rocking them on my e30... they are my dedicated track beaters ; /
        No more e30s for me.

            I agree with this and is one of the few(besides the Lightweights) that has the "BMW Motorsports" engraved in it. But these are heavy as hell which WILL affect braking and accel times and add additional unsprung mass to your suspension.

            I do like the flat face and more spokes over the Lightweight ones though...

              17x7.5 ET41. They never came staggered, and only came on the '95 M3. They also came with 235/40/17 tires too, which is interesting (very very few 235/40 tires are said to be okay to mount on a 7.5" wide wheel. It works fine though!).

                  Yeah, I guess I forgot to answer the original question. LOL

                  BTW, the "BMW Motorsports" were only engraved on this wheel and the Lightweights that came on the '95 models making it extra special and knowing you don't have a knockoff like those fake Contours or DSII wheels floating out there making it harder to tell if they're OEM. ;)
