Default Looking for BMW wheels

Just a shot in the dark, here. Does anyone have a set of 17" five-spoke wheels (knock-offs, aftermarket, whatever) to fit a e-36 325i? Prefer with tires, but I'll look at any. Email me at pauldobbs@hotmail.com if you have or know of any for sale.

Thanks
Paul

It is this body style, by the way. Notice how it looks a little anemic with the stock wheels!

Look hard I got my 18" Hammans with tires for less than 1K which is the cost of approximately 1.7 wheels new.

Dan,
Damn boyeee! I just barely recognize that car. You've been spending some time in the booth haven't you? I like the body-colored bumper pads and door handles, good idea! Those wheels are the shizat. Yeah, I changed my mind I think I want to trade back, ok? Just kidding! I'm completely and totally hooked an Harleys now. I bought a 1200 sportie, but my dad bought it from me so I'm looking at a full custom 1200 spotster now. My wife hates them, but she didn't really like Porsches either! Your car looks great man, keep up the great work.

Matt,
I have the chance to buy some Hammann knock-offs locally for $900. They are 18" with nice kumhos but they are on a '91 535, do you know if those fit?

No, offset is WAY different between the two cars. Figure on ET12-20mm for the 535, ET40ish for the 3ers (I've got a '91 750il that has similar offset to the E34s)

I have a full set of OEM Type 44 seven spoke 17x8 wheels with 225/45-17 from my E46. They will fit your car.
