Will they fit my 2.8 1997 Z3.
I'm pretty sure they will but just thought I'd ask to make sure.

Need a good refurb but really like the look of them.

Thanks.

Yes they will, and @t-tony can definitely confirm that fact

Yes they will fit, rears will stick a bit in board, but you can add some spacers

More than the original alloys? The originals stick quite inboard already.

It all depends on the offset of your original wheels, have a look at some of TTonys photos he has the wheels fitted and they look good, but I do know he's fitted spacers as well @t-tony

Of course! These wheels I'm looking at have an offset of 51 at the rear, so as you say, they will probably need some 10mm spacers.

Originally my car had these wheels with NO spacers. I only fitted the spacers after buying them in Florida last year 14mm at the front and 20mm at the rear.

Have you got any pictures of how the wheels sit in line with the arches?

As mine is a widebody version will this make a difference?

 

[t-tony]

Mine's a wide arse too Steve. I will try to post some pics this evening. You may need to send me a PM to remind me though as I have a lot on this evening.

Here you go Steve.



Hope you like these Steve, I do. Really changes the look of the car in my humble opinion, also along with the ACS style front splitters I fitted last autumn.


What ever you do, do what you want to, it's your car.

We're old fashioned, bath night is Saturday night! OH!, you meant "that" type of soap.

Thanks Tony! Brilliant pictures mate, those alloys are spaced perfectly! Definitely going to get me a set.

You are very welcome Steve, this is what I love about this forum, people genuinely do like to help each other even if it's only by showing pictures whereby someone can make a decision about something without spending loads. I f you need help with the arm, all you need to do is ask.

Tony.
