Ive got B and M alloys on my 323i but I fancy a set of widened steels like those being used on rat golfs. any know where I can get some like the one the picture below? What kind of dimensions am I looking at? How about getting some old steel e30 centres fitted to different outer rims? Aghh why cant I paste a picture here?

Some nice wide steelies could look great on the right E30. As long as they're at least 14" and made to a suitable offset, most older golf wheels are 4x100 so they'll go on an E30...

I looked into this not long ago, there's a company on the net that will widen 'em for you

Unfortunately it was a touch out of my price range and would have actually worked out more that the car cost me! :eek:
