Can anyone tell me of any other brands that share the same wheel pattern as the E30?
(Pattern as in PCD and offset)
On ebay I have seen VW Golf wheel adverts with BMW E30 in the title so it got me thinking.

Hi mate, e30 (exept M3) are 4x100 pcd, this is the same as VW, Vauxhall and rover, plus probly a few jap makes. o yeah, and the bmw mini.

Main thing to watch is offset, as ideal offset with a front driver is different to what you want.
you want to try the wheels, check they clear your brake calipers, inner and outer arches.

I fitted some wheels to mine from fwd car (not VW though) for a bit, they fitted ok, but they didn't fill the arches very well

Hope this helps. let us know how it goes.
