    Will 15x8 et12 Frt, et22 Rear fit my '88 e30

    Like the title says. I found a set of pretty sweet widend steelies but they are currently on a VW MKII and I'm not sure if the offsets will work for my '88 325is.

    The fronts are 15x8 et12 and the rears are 15x8 et22. Does anyone know if these will fit? Or better yet, does anyone have them mounted and running them?

    They'll fit if you run the backwards ass sounding offset of them (wheels more pushed out in front), might have an issue if you run the 22s in the front.

      Sorry, didn't quite understand that. You said to run them opposite, so et22 Frt and et12 in the rear. But then you said I might have an issue if I put the et22's up front.

      Please clarify

            I didn't say to run them that way, i'm just saying it's going to look goofy with the front pushed out more than the rear.

              Spacer works wonders. Either wheel will work with those offsets, both in the front and in the back.

                I looked into the wheels a little more and found out that they make them new for the price the guy is selling his. Only difference is that he is selling his with 195/45 tires. Which are way to small for me anyway.

                The company makes them to order so I can get what ever offset I want. What would you say is the best offset I could go with, and still make them Poke?
