Rims, low profile wheels, etc.

[wtf_shawn]

Hey guys,
I have a 1988 325i and I am having a hell of a time finding some good rims for it. I just recently bought it and have begun work on it. 14" rims are tough to find so i was wondering if anyone could suggest something, or maybe a site I could order off of. I was hoping something low profile if possible.

Thanks,
Shawn

You need to do a lot more research. There are a ton of common setups in the 7-8" wide range and between +15 and +25 offset.

you need to decide what size tires you want to run, wheel diameter and how much fender work you want to do and we can tell you the wheel specs will fit

I also forgot to mention I had to roll my front and rear fenders since my car is low so it wouldn't rub stock height wheels look kinda weird =\.

I don't think your gonna find many aftermarket 14" wheels these days. It's getting even harder to find tyres for 14" wheels.
You've gotta look 15" and larger. 16" is probably ideal. And there are plenty out there that with brands like Rota and Sportmaxx being the most affordable while other brands like Rays, BBS, SSR or any other 3 piece wheel manufacturer being the most expensive.
For a start check out tyre rack they have many wheels that fit our car all you do is enter what make and model our cars are and they will have plenty of wheels to choose from.
Then do a bit more research on things like offsets and width sizing so you can choose a nice fitment so your wheels sit either flush or poke out. It's up to you.

i've got 16x8 sportmax 15 offsets and i love the fit. no fender work and i'm pretty low. i also ran a 205 45. slight rim poke but not vw poke... it has not hit my fender yet and i'm on Eibach pro kit springs with e90 hats.

What kind of wheels do you like and what is your budget? Euroweaves can be a good option for a few hundred as can 1 piece Style 5's but would require adapters or fill/drill. Not sure what you mean by 'low profile' wheels, that's usually a reference to the tires sidewall/aspect ratio.
