 E30 325is wheels help!!!



Dear admin, please don't move this thread, I really need the exposure.

That said, I really need a set of 15" OEM E30 rims. The car I bought has 14" with tires that have hairline cracks. I don't want to have to put all new 14" tires for Sears, and then have to buy a new set of 15" wheels and tires.

And Sears point is in less than 2 weeks.

So would anyone who knows a set of 15" OEM E30 rims for sale in LA please please send then my way.

Thanks.

If you REALLY have to, you can probably temporarily use wheels off a Civic/Integra/Sentra/Corolla, as they're the same 4x100. Not sure about centerbore, though. doeboy has his stock 15" Integra wheels with Michelins someplace.

I'm not sure how the body difference will affect this, but E30M3s need 5/6/7er offsets. You'll need big fat spacers to run E36/46 wheels. Besides, OE sized wheels will be WAY WAY lighter.

I thought OEM E30 is wheels were 14" basketweaves?

Miata hollow-spoke alloys are light and have the same bolt pattern. Check 'em first to make sure they clear the brakes...

i thought so too. 15"ers might have been a factory option the m3 had 15" 5-lugs.

The E30 M3 had them std, but they were wider and I believe the offset (5 lug) was different. In Europe you could get 15" E30 Basket weaves (4 lug) to fit the the regular E30 3-Series as a factory option.
