These wheels.. on an E30

[5Toes]

lmao, i think they look cool, would look good slammed low offest and panted plasti dip white.

Thank you thank you

[LJ851]

how wide are these wheels? What kind of total offset can you end up with the adapters?

[5Toes]

These thankfully are higher offset ET42

15X7 - I think they will work.

The high offset is cool because spacers can be made to work!

[Jand3rson]

Adapters are sketchy too.

There is no solid basis for that statement. None. Not when they're good quality and installed correctly. Hot rod guys and trucks/crawlers have been using adapters for decades.

And why bother for 15" wheels, especially such stock-looking ones?

[QUiKSR20]

Eww no.

Here is what your car should look like

OK just throwing out there, Id pass though on those wheels though for the trouble youll need to make them fit. The style 10's were on my car when i picked it up and its one of my toys... The main toy is a Sentra SE-R SR20DET with 300WHP 2.0Turbo

Ive taken 3 1100 mi roadtrips on my adapters. With stretch, camber, toe, errything.

[5Toes]

See you guys dont get it.

The wheels are $100

Adapters $300 or so ... and then I can resell the wheels probably not lose anything and get some other 5 lug wheels .. or sell adapters

Not losing much money, or none.

[Stephen]

If you get adapters please do slightly wider ones in the rear

I paid $400 for my minty Ronal LS's that are hubcentric and 4x100 already, there are very nice 15x7/ 15x8 wheels available for that kind of money. Hell,Tire Rack has really sharp,light wheels for less than 100 each. Their C1 wheel in 15x8 is bitchin.

i paid 400 for my 3-piece bbs RF's.
15x7 et25 4x100, they even came with a bbs hex cap tool :)
5toes, its just a matter of waiting.
think of it like fishing, you can pull in little fish all day, but you gotta wait around a long time for the big fish.

[5Toes]

Yes to all of that. I check near everyday on CL. I just type in "4X100" in autoparts... of course after I search "BMW" in auto parts :giggle:

Adapters are in no way a bad investment.. they resell easily. They give lots of different options for wheels, etc.

Also, the wheels are $100 people. That is so cheap. Remember that these ARE MINT. No rash, paint is not flaking. They dont need refinished or anything.

[Pantless Spency]

well you better paint them spank white.

True words. I spent 6 months of persuasive prying to get my Ronals.


You are focused on the 100 number but you will have 400+ into that setup before it rolls.

[5Toes]

I fully understand what everybody is getting at here, but I dont see myself losing much money at all on these

[LJ851]

Sounds like you are already committed. Best of luck, they will be unique for sure.

Remember to plan for a flat tire, ie the tools to remove an adapter on the road or get another e36 wheel
