E30 Zone

hi
my dad had these wheels on his e36 and i thought id see if i could get a rough idea of them on an e30.
i really like the look of them and you can buy these addapters now to fit them!! what you think???
thanks

AFAIK you can't get 5x120 to 4x100 adapters.

Could be wrong though.

there ^^^ so what you think?

They're utterly ordinary. Completely inoffensive but BMW makes a lot better 5 stud alloys than that. Stick to your BBS.

i know but i do like the look of it and its different

Those adaptors are 20mm thick, what would that make the total offset with those wheels?

Very dodgy in my opinion.
And the wheels just dont suit your car josh.

They look gash.

looks like thats settled then
thanks for your thoughts!!

To be honest I think those wheels looks okay on your car, they are not very nice looking but they are frankly very okay and I wouldnt be afraid of using them if I had an E30! But I would never ever buy an adapter to use them, then I would spend time and some money to convert my E30 from 4 to 5 studs...

BBS over those boring rims anyday....just one man's opinion and at the end of the day, it's your ride ;)

If i were going to use a 5 stud bmw wheel i'd get myself a set of e36 328i sport 17" Split rim BBS's with the wider rears.They'd look sooo much nicer than those plain e46 wheels on your car matey

M3 front struts and E36 compact rear arms and be done with it

M3 BBS wheels.....

Wont work as the front and rear will need different offsets

Why?

i think they look and suit your car

although they may be classed slightly council

Yeah few guys have done it here in the US on www.r3vlimited.com but they did 5 lug swap kits. Also they used the larger 330i 17" E46 wheels.

Put a set of M5 wheels on

E30 M3 = low 20's et.
