    You need to find out what the offset is.

      If they came off a honda, and they are 4x100 bolt pattern, you'll probably need 15-20mm spacers.

          From what i gather this wheel was offered in a few different offsets.

          We can't really give any advice until he posts the offset of the wheels at hand.

            This is true...but since he said it's from a Honda - this leads one to believe the offset is between 35-40mm

              even if its from a honda the rim will still fit just with the proper spacers correct? will this rim be hub centric with the spacer?

                Correct. You need to figure out the offset to make sure you get the right spacers though.

                      fuck them.

                      if they were on a honda, you'll have to machine them to fit a bigger hub, and use spacers, or make some fucking amazing custom spacers that fit on our hubs and in there.

                          uhh, no it's not


                          Tirerack.com sells plenty of wheels that fit correctly, and they are NEW, so you don't run the risk of buying bent, rashed wheels that don't fit correctly.

                          Check it out, last time I looked they had wheels from $89 each up to ~$249 each.

                          There are plenty of other places that sell wheels that fit too.

                            well on an island that doesnt have any interest or very lil interest in an e30 they dont have any choices i have seen. i only know of a few places but never have. im try to avoid from buying rims online. prefer something on this island. i was hoping these would fit for the price i would have got them for.
