I reckon a white set of those would look awesome on an E30.

Wonder what sizes they came in.

BMW minis have the same PCD but a different centre bore I think, proper old minis have a 4"PCD, which is 1.6mm too large for the E30.

They've always struck me as a wheel usually fitted to dodgy low-budget kit cars, rusty minis and Escorts, altogether rather council imho!

For the price of the wheel's for f*****g around with they are good and reasonably strong. I have seen them on a red e30 and they looked good. The mini wheel's do fit but have the wrong off set.

Spacers and longer whell bolts.(not safe) But better off with the right wheels in the fisrt place.
