Golf ones fit. Ford's fit Pugs but not BMW's. I think also Vauxhall fits BMW's too.

any wheels with a 4x100 bolt pattern will fit, ford and pug stuff is 4x108, vauxhall, some volvo, honda and vw stuff is the far more common 4x100 pcd.

ford offset is 35et, iv got a set of multi fit ford rims for the project in 15" i can put them up against the bm but im sure the 35 offset will be too much.

just been reading up on offsets. makes a big difference it seems. and now i know how to measure them properly.

for offset onfo on how to measure look here.. http://www.topbuzz.co.uk/info/offset/offset.htm

and to see what wheels could maybe fit yours i use rochfordtyres wheel fitment guide, if you google it it shows offsets, bore diameter and stud pattern.

not sure if this helps anyone.
