So a set of wheels popped up from a C4 Vette. Supposedly 5x4.75 (120.7mm) bolt pattern, should fit the bmw. I know my car is 5x120, Those of you that have ran corvette wheels, did you have to get adapters to go from 5x4.75 to 5x4.72? 17x9.5 BBS RS's with a 53mm offset. I figured I need at least a 15mm spacer to fit them in order to clear the suspension. Being at et38 I figure I could fit a 245/40/17 front and rear and the stretch wouldn't be too bad. I might even be able to stretch my 235/45/17's on them in the meantime but that's a big stretch, seeing as these rims have 275's on them right now. Thoughts?

oh here's pics

I'm also looking at a set of ASA AR1's - 17x9 w/ a 45mm offset. Same price as these BBS's. But I'm pretty sure I'll need at least a 10mm spacer with those too

235's would def. not be a big stretch. I don't know about the bolt pattern though.

You will want bigger than a 15mm spacer.

Do not buy ASA's.

We run 215's on 9.5's around here.

Meaty, 235/245's at least. I wouldn't want a crazy stretch. I dunno about the whole wobble bolt thing. I might just get sways.
