Hi, im new to this site & would like to know if 18" wheels fit without to much hassle.
If not,are there any good 17's on the market that will fit?
Not having much luck finding brands that do!!
Many Thanks
Jordy

There are BK racing 171's - basically Aplina replicas - 17"
I wouldnt go any bigger than 17's. 16's are ample.

Personally Id go for Azev Type A's in 17"

My mate has 18's on his e30 318is and its lowered 40mm, He has no probs at all. Cant think of the make of wheels on his but they came off the calibra he had before the e30.
