  • BMW W/ JDM rims? Offset question

    I just recently acquire a 90 325is and plan to use it as my drift whore for now. I already have a good suspension base running the HR CUP kit but now I am stumped on the wheels. I love old enkie's, long champs XR4 and Watanabe RS8's. My problem is the the offset of the Bmw is around +25 to +27 and the rims are lower. I don't think any kind of adapter is wanted since I have had bad experiences with them. Does anyone have pics of an e30 with jdm rims? If so what are they??

    Any help will be greatly appreciated. This isn't really a question I can ask my usual bimmerfourm so I have to turn to you all...

    Why, because they are going to tell you the same thing I'm about to?

    Get some nice, clean, european rollers. Enkie's on a BMW? I mean you gotta do what you gotta do, but there's a lot of companies making wheels for your car that will look and fit better.

    "JDM TYTE YO" has no place on a BMW. What did the car come with anyway? You're not taking off BBS's for that junk are you?

      I had enkeis on my chevette, and they came off of a 2002 bmw.
      they looked like bbs mesh.
      mesh was big in the 80s so i wouldn't see why a 325 couldn't have em. one word, panasports

        Bolt pattern is a problem.

          ssr makes some wheels in the 5x120 pattern needed for your car. Check out their website, the formula mesh will probably be cool.

            Wrong, 1973. The e30 non-M3 runs a 4x100 bolt pattern, the same as the Honda Civic.

            kryptonite, you want mesh? Ronal LS.

              You're right. I was thinking of 5'ers and later e36's. well he should find alot of rims for sale then.

              here is a link to give you rough offsets and hub size.
