    You will certainly need spacers for these, the minimum offset for a 17x7 wheel on an E30 is +28. You will need a 15-20mm spacer at the front, perhaps at the rear too.

    They are quite heavy too and they are not actually pretty either. Not for an E30 anyway. But if they are pretty cheap they may worth it. Aren't there any other alternatives?

    Interesting design, I would keep the centercaps on to hide the 8 lug pattern you have going...

    The offset is very high, you need spacers to push them out to about ET15 which is optimal with a 17" wheel on an E30. Make sure you get hubcentric spacers if you do end up getting them. The stock E30 centerbore is 57.1mm.

    The size is pretty heavy, you'll probably notice it a bit, but if you say they're for cruisin' then no worries. It also depends on how much you are going to get them for...

    Need opinion on wheels

    Hey guys
    Im looking at getting better rims than those damn bottlecaps.

    I found a set that I like
    These are the specs

    Make: Erglanz
    17x7 with +40 offset
    4x114.3 and 4x100 bolt pattern.
    They also weight 26 pounds each..

    These are not going to meant for the track, just to roll around town and look good, my bottlecaps are my track wheels.

    What do you think about the offset and size * and weight * off these wheels, i'll get them for a good price so are they worth it?
