good day fundi`s in the wheel place

I want fit some superlite2 alloys, ford fitment on my e30.

e30= 4x100(same as vw golf mkII) classic ford = 4x108, correct?

So they wont fit straight on, but...... what about these pcd adapters I found , check link

I may be wrong but AFAIK, 13" is too small, minimum you need is at least 14" to fit over the brakes.

yep. 13s definately wont fit for starters. secondly, adapters will correct the pcd fine, but they'll reduce the wheels offset by a minimum of 15mm, and the ones in your pic look to be a pretty low offset to start with!
cheers,

There was a set of compomotive ML in 15" with 4x100 PCD for sale on www.edition38.com late last week, you need to register to view the classifieds, but it's worth it for the wheels for sale over there

if you want those type of wheels then have a word with zaust on here as he (or was it his missus?) had them on a 2 tone tech 2 sport.

he should be able to help you in your search if you want to go for comp SL/ML's.
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.
