Anyone - Please advise:

Will the Motorsport 17 Wheels 40mm offset fit
a e36 1994 325is with 215/45-17 tire set-up?

I currently have ACS Type II 35-mm offset.


Thank you for your advise!
Oscar

Yes, the BMW Motorsport 17 (x 7.5, like what came on '95 M3's) will fit any E36 body car. The 40 mm offset is closer to your OEM set-up than your ACS's, which will allow you to run wider tires if you want. You can easily run a 235/40/17 tire on those wheels without fender rolling, spacers, etc.

The 40mm offset is ideal. If I can help let me know.

THANKS FOR ALL THAT REPLIED!!!

The Motorsport wheels look good - that means that the three left
over ACS type II 17x8 Offset 35mm (Chrome) will be for sale soon.
