    ohhh, I know - everyone likes 175/40 tires stretched onto 15x10 rims :p
    Big sidewalls with a half finger fender gap, if that. :p Good times.

      Hm, those just might look good on my Granatrot 2002.. You say they are 114.3 though? How much are you selling them for?

        ^^Nope they'd look good on my Sahara car though :p. Just kidding, they would look excellent on a Granatrot car. Is it a big bumper car or not? You'll need to gold-dip the bumpers/trim to match the wheel centers.

        Edit: I suppose that's a picture of the 2002's motor in your sig, eh? K-fisch much?

        Too bad they are 4x114.3, but still... how much? They certainly could be re-drilled (although I've never been a fan of that). Neat though.

          Sorry, I think they look horrible.

          They look like Centerline's meant for a 5.0 drag car.

              haha my mom had those exact style of wheels on her '76 Maverick (that thing was mint too).

              I don't think it looks too bad, the fender/tire fitment is similar to mine. Would be better with wider tires and the same fender/tire fitment.

                The wheels, eh everyone can say what they want. The color combo on this car is kinda iffy. I just like the rivets. :-D Agree w/ nando on wishing they were 2-3" wider and 15".

                I would prefer a trade for some 15x7 4x100 wheels (such as some dforce or k1) so that gives an idea on price :), unfortunately I only have three of these at the moment, trying to track down a few more. I have been using adapters w/o issues, redrill would be the way to go though. Since these were just an impulse buy I didn't want to go through all that trouble just yet.

                      Did they make these wheels in 4x100? Depending on price I may look for a set for my 02. This is the first time I've seen them on and e30, and I've certainly never seen them on an 02.

                              Yeah, they are similar to sport seats (suck) I am planning to purchase some nice seats etc. soon. :D

                              They made them in lots of bolt patterns and sizes 14-16 6-8", I haven't seen a set in 4x100 yet.

                              Wish I knew, I have been trying to track down more for a while and even employed the help of some scion wheels whores, only sets I have found have been way too expensive for my taste. They were popular on datsuns and early rx7's.
