Where's a good place to buy rims?

[silversleeper]

I am looking for something with a nice deep polished lip. Something wide as well. I have a set of 225/45/17 Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's that are ready to be mounted as well. I am just having the hardest time trying to find shops online that carry BMW specific rims. Any suggestions?

No dish, but www.team-dynamics.com makes wheels with low enough offset to run wide rubber. Also, www.discounttiredirect.com carries a bunch of wheels, namely ATS. I think the ATS cup has been discontinued as well as the ATS DTM (my two favorite wheels by them), but the ATS venus looks like a stylized version of the old cup wheel.

225/45/17 is oversize. Those will look goofy.

You need to run a 40 or 35 series on a 17in wheel for a e30.

I don't think they'll look goofy, but there will definitely be rubbing issues. They are about a full inch oversize.


To clarify Jordan's post, the proper 17" size for e30s is 215/40-17. I personally would get some 235/40s if I was going with wider 17s and do some fender rolling and liner cutting.

245/35/17 is the money size. ;) I would be getting those, if only the new Azenis didn't release in 215.

What kinda rims would you fit those on?

Something at least 8" wide, preferably. Not many 17x8" and wider 4x100 wheels around though.

May I mention that there is free shipping from Germany on this site. You just pay for the wheels and thats it.
