question about wheel...

[MIZTERIO]

do they fit to my e30?? what size spacers and bolts do i need?? do you think they are worth $600?? they are in very good conditions.. am trying to buy them but i want to know if the fit.. thanks :)

wheel details:
Model: RZ481 Offset: +42mm
7Jx15H2 - BO1 - 481ET42

4 bolt holes
Offset +42mm
Each hole is 4.5" in diameter (114.3 mm)
Holes are 4" apart

no

Won't fit. You would need 20mm spacers that adapt from 4x114.3 to 4x100. That way they would be 4x100 ET20-ish. Otherwise, no go. They may also not be E30 hubcentric (57.1).

even if they were 4x100 you'd need serious spacers which would set you back a couple bills with studs. that sounds like a honda offset to me.

thanks guys... am not buying the shit then :)

Say, why are spacers so expensive in the US? I had four 12mm spacers custom machined and balanced, AND they include slightly larger hub ring indents to make my wheel hubcentric, in ADDITION to 16 long bolts, all for $40. (And the bolts were not the cheap chromy ones)

Why so cheap?

All it takes is a lathe. You can get the material as plate or large rod. You can pick up a used older lathe for less than $1000 in the states. A lot are still around from WWII. Cost is primarily labor.
We have a lathe, boring mill, bandsaw, and large drill press in our shop and all of those items were less than $400 a piece. They're older, from the early 1940's, but still do the job.
Answer: labor, labor, labor.
