Bbs Rk ????

Hey everyone,
I am thinking about buying a set of BBS rk's 17x7 with an offset of 42mm. I have 2 questions about these wheels.
1.) will a 42mm offset work on a 1990 325iC?
2.) Does anybody know a good source to get these wheels?

Thanks,
Ryan

The preffered offset....for the billionth time.

...is around ET20-25. Shoot for this. ET22 is possible with 20mm spacers. You will need spacers. I really want to scream at people who keep asking these types of questions.

As for sourcing these wheels, try Hondatech forums, http://forums.vwvortex.com/zeroforum?id=800 forums, and other forums for them. Use the search tool there. www.ebaymotors.com www.google.com Maybe even here on R3V, although I haven't seen a pair of RK's for awhile. Also go onto www.tirerack.com and you can find them in that offset with Hondas. Search for wheels there under mid '90's Hondas. They may also have these under VW's from the mid 90's with an offset of ET35. If you find these, use 10-15mm hubcentric spacers.

57.1mm is the correct centerbore for E30's. Make sure you get hubcentric spacers if this centerbore number is not the same when buying these.

The size of the spacers you will need will depend on the offset you find on the RK's you find for sale at one of those many websites I have linked.

I found a set for sale here on R3V in 45 seconds, shown in the link above. Ask him if he still has them. They come with the needed spacers and tires, longer lug nuts, and locks.

Thats why I'm bumping this.

Not pride. More like, showing one that they can find they have common sense.

AND A FUCKING SEARCH BUTTON.
