    People who sell wheels are worthless, need some help!

    Every place I have called to purchase rims have yet to help me fit some rims and tires. They tell me that they don't sell rims for my car cuz it is nothing but a bunch of problems. 92 325ic. I think these people must find a new occupation, but seriously, I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me fit a couple of rims, since I'm unknowledgable when it comes to this and I need to buy some rims soon becuase my old wheels are shot and its time to upgrade. These are my selections...

    ADR-Enigma
    ADR Cypher
    ADR-Genesis
    BSA 220
    Racing Hart C5 (This is my first choice I'm bankin on)
    Racing Hart C4
    Racing Hart CR
    Tenzo RS5
    Tenzo Mean 6
    Tenzo Passion 5
    Zigen Corpse

    (all of these rims are 17 by 7, I'd like a 7.5 or 8, but I've no idea where to find these)

    Well these are my wheel selections, I'm a big fan of the RH C5 in gunmetal or black for my white e30. I've come to find that selecting a wheel for your car is probably harder then naming your first child. I'd appreciate any information on fitting these wheels to my car, the RH C5 primarily. I'm sure fitting these rims to my car if very possible with the prober spacer, hubmetric center...ing thingamagig. And the tires too I hear you must fit the prober tire to your car and rim. Alls I know is that I'd appreciate anyones information on how the heck I get these wheels to fit my car so I don't have to get hassled by the wheel salesman. Leave your opinions on these wheels too if anyone reads this to help me narrow my selections down. Hey thanks so much, look forward to anyones help.

                Pfft. BBS hasn't made a damn wheel for our cars since 10 years ago.

                  really? when I go to the tirerack I see 10 BBS wheels that will fit my car. of course you guys would need hubcentric spacers, but they still exist.

                  and don't forget the factory 14" and 15" wheels that you can still buy new..

                      Robert, half of those rims aren't made for BMW's any more than the rims that the guy posted. Any of them just need spacers and hubcentric rings.

                        tru, thats what I thought. Are the spacers and rings unessasary weight, I've heard that the spacers aren't good for your joints and what not, is this true?

                          no spacers needed for REAL Alpinas! (if you can find them)

                            Unnecessary weight? You can't run most of those rims without them. And the rings are feather light, and spacers 1-2lbs each. They are completely safe and harmless.

                              i'd personally rather have a wheel that fits perfect with nothing necessary.

                              do koseis from tirerack need rings? i might live with that.
