I've got some 15" steelies with good snow tires. Just wondering if they'd fit. The only concern is, they're 45+ (or maybe 40+) offset. I'm thinking they will not fit and I'll need spacers, but just curious. I've got an E30 325, BTW.

And, yes, I'll try them on the car, but I won't have time to do it until next week. (Thanksgiving week is HECTIC!!)

If they're 4x100 bolt pattern,they'll work with 20 mm spacers.

Actually, I got out tonight and tried it. Definately need a big spacer. I don't think I'll risk it, though, since I'll also need to get longer wheel bolts.
