E30 325i stock height wheel fitment?

M3_MANN · Mon, Jun-18-2012, 02:47:19 AM

I know this isn't the most ideal section to ask this question, but I don't have a account in any of the E30 forums.

Would this wheel fit a stock setup e30 325i?
Offset: +35mm
Bolt Pattern: 4x100
Size: 15x7
center bore: 56.1mm

I guess the biggest question is, the center bore of e30 is 57.0mm. The wheels are 1.1mm too small and I wanted to see if there was a solution to this. Adapter spacers? Machining new holes on the wheels?

Any help would be appreciated.

15x7 et24 is a stock wheel option. A 15x7 et35 is going to be even more sunk in than those stock e30 wheels.

As for the center bore, a quality wheel repair shop can mill the center bore out to the e30 specs. I'm looking at my sources we don't have an adapter while will match the smaller bore to the E30s bore.

If you had the wheels bored out to match the E30 hub I would start with a 20mm spacer (LINK) and see how things look from there.
