How much should I pay for e36 M3 'motorsport' wheels?

[jaistanley]

Now before you lot start I mean a proper set, not the 4 stud copies...

I have the 'problem' of having brakes that are too big..

I need E36 offset wheels that'll go over the M coupé front rear brakes (rears fitted with whole arms, fronts fitted with a spacer behind the disk on E30M3 struts).

I'm getting tight on budget and noticed M3 wheels from the earlier 3.0 are cheap and plentiful. They can look a bit naff on the E30 I know but am going to get them re-conned and painted a dark metallic grey, or anthricite. Will look mean on my red car.

Will these fit with 225/45.17"s?? And how much should I pay for a set. Not too bothered about corrosion but must be straight.

Many thanks guys..

it varies, but mint ones go for about Ԛ£400 with tyres.

Spose I'll be looking for slightly corroded ones with duff tyres..

How much should I pay for these??

A friend has a set of BK Alpina copies with Pirelli P Zero Nero (assimetrico maybe) he may sell me. What are the chances of fitting 225/45/17's under the arches??

Cheers..

215/40 is the best imo, thats what i run and ian 332i aswel

Sounds like a plan then. Are they much more expensive than 225/45's (which seem quite common)?

I'm planning to put the 3,2 M Roadster in mine and want to be able to put the power down...

Got the Roadster diff too which I beleive is a Torsen type. Might help matters.
