    do mini wheels fit an e30

    I have a ix, i've been looking for some wheels that would fit, any suggestions? I was told that mini wheels fit (by a honda guy) I just can't take his word on it.

    Centre bore is smaller on mini wheels, need to be bored out a touch. But also poor offsets for e30

        You take care of the center bore with the huge spacer that you will need.

          Large spacers I do know are dangerous,the studs break easy during hard cornering.

              that is so horribly incorrect it hurts.

              If your studs/bolts are breaking during cornering, you need to buy better quality bolts/studs.

              Spacers and adapters are safe for driving as long as you install them correctly with the correct hardware. If long studs were dangerous then TMS and other big companies wouldnt produce 90mm stud kits.
