I had 16x7.5 TSW EVO's on my old 320 and they fit perfect. They had ground down fenders and the wheels were 20mm offset.

I also had the Motorsport double spoke 17x7.5 on my e30 325 and they had 25mm offset.

I am sure the Motorsport wheels will fit the 320 as long as they are 25mm offset while using 5mm spacers. They were by far my favourite of all the wheels I have owned!

Try my good buddy Rob Leech at Contemporary Motorsports for a good price on the wheels, spacers and wheel bolts. I can't remember his toll free number, but you can try him at 403.291-1578 and they will give you the number. Or see their ad in Sport Compact Car or maybe even European Car.

Good Luck,

Steve

: This is probably a dumb question, but i'm dreaming here and was wondering if it is possible to put 17" wheels on a e21 without some serious problems. I really like these double spoke motorsport rims(see link "Wheels") and they fit the e30. With spacers is it possible to put them on an e21. I have seen a e21 with 17x7.5 BBS RX wheels(see pic). What is need to run 17" wheels on an e21? Spacers? Fender rolling? etc. Thanks for your assistance.
