    Who's on style 32s with adapters?

    Considering selling my style 5's and going with said setup. Found some pics but couldn't tell if they were on 5lug swap or adapters.

    Thanks!

    Style 32's from the E39 were 17x9 in the rear. That may be why you don't see too many people running them with adapters. They usually have E30 M3 5 lug or run the Z3 high offset Style 32's which don't look as good, IMO. I just picked up some style 32's for my white M3. I have always liked these wheels 2nd only to style 5's.

    Not my car but what it should look like.

        You could also piece together a set of 4 17x8. Just find someone who wants to run 17x9's all the way around and trade. It won't be hard at all on bimmerforums.

              He is running e36 suspension with z3 wheels though. Nevermind, I'm assuming he wanted to run the e39 wheels

                Oops, I missed the adapter part.

                  Good god that white M3 looks hot with those Style 32s. So, would 17x8 fit using adapters...? Which adapters?

                    Depends who you ask about the meaning of "fit." ;)

                    I will make them fit!

                      This should be interesting. What tire size will u run on the 17x9?

                          215 on a 9"? whoa. and I was thinking 235/40/17 would be too stretched on a 9"...but maybe not. There aren't too many 245/35/17's available.

                            215 ~ 8.5" so it wont be that bad but it will be a good stretch. I may switch to a 45 side wall to get more options.. we will see!
