wheel options

[quick93]

Well, yesterday wasn't a good day for my car. I ended up backing into a rock that was about a foot high, luckily it just got my wheel and not the bumper. I'm running 18's on the car now and intend on staying with that size. Since I'm on a very tight budget I've been searching for sets on Craigslist and I'm finding several that say they fit 3 and 5 series. I know the ones for an older 3 will fit with spacers but are there any for a much newer 3 that are the correct offset? I don't want to run spacers so if not then I'll skip those ads. Also I've seen other cars like Camaro listed in ads as the same fitment as a 5 series, are there any other car's I can search to maybe find a better selection of aftermarket wheels from?

All 3 series (as far as I know) use a different offset than 5 series. Stick with 5 series wheels. GM wheels might have the same or close bolt pattern, but are probably a different hub diameter. They might work, but I doubt it.

They might work, but I doubt it. Yeah, I was thinking that myself. The wheels are hub centric and if the diameter is off then the only option is to get rings. I was just hoping to open up my options a little bit, I've got so much going on right now this is the last thing I want to deal with.
