Id put my money on them being reps....

If you want them, he has made no mention of them in the ad, so maybe a cash deal plus some standard E30 wheels could swing it for you.....

Toms wheels were not ACSnitchers.

Kangman, I can't help out on this one, as there are loads of rep wheels by different companies out there.
I'd bet the were from China though.

Don't put 17" wheels on an E30. I've been down this road before and I learned very quickly why Hartge, Alpina, Schnitzer only ever put 16" wheels on E30s.

Which 16" wheels is entirely up to you but learn from the experience of others, it's a backward step unless all you care about is how your car looks.

would the one's in that link fit straight on an E30? Or would spacers be needed?
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

Spacers are needed to fit an e30 mate. The mini has a high ET, around 50 iirc.

Anyone remember RH's? I remember ACS suing the rep makers, then junking all of the replicas. They are certainly reps, possibly RH.

Mini wheels offsets can range from 38 to 50.
Just checked, so Nathans right, you'll need spacers.

mini is about et35-40 and should run spacers. Dan320is has set iirc on one of his cars

these are not mini wheels, they are reps which were made in 4x100 in et20

AC mini wheels resemble type I's with a small lip but the spokes them selves have a convex shape where as these are concave

these even come in typeIII format (bottom of the page)
