    crown vic mesh wheels on e30 anyone?

    I've been trying to find if someone has ever thought about running crown victoria mesh wheels. But to make the story short I have some of these wheels laying around and was looking to get 5 lug adapters to run them. I just wanna know if anyone has done these wheels before (pix please). And if not does anyone think its worth it running adapters and all? These are not mine but its a pic of how they look 16x8 don't know the offset sorry.

          You can measure offset.

              Ill have to do that some time this week I have to take them out of my storage. Its been raining all week so I haven't been able to post them. Anyway I've seen a lot of rx7 clubs and nissan 240 sites that post them for sale all the time I need one new rim but was looking if anyone has ran them before cuz I don't like the idea of adapters to much but I can be convinced.

                offset looks too low for adapters, but they would be look nice if they could fit.

                  I keep thinking that with adapters its goin to stick out to much from the front. But the back I think would be ok because its an early model the arches in the back would look sick with a nice tire idk im still a lil weird about them and just tossing the idea around this jan im buying 4x100 wheels of a buddie of mine so it would look good during the summer lol ,but im hoping to make these workout later in the future if I can get some more info.
