  • will they be too small? halp!

    hey guys, i found a guy selling some bbs lm's on my local forums, good price too, the only thing im worried about is the sizing, theyre 17x8 and 17x9 with weaksauce 45 and 48 offsets... im not particularly worried about the offsets though is im gonna re furb/re build them, reverse mount the 9's and put them up front and re barrel the 8's to a 9.5/10"... i drive a 2003 honda accord euro (acura tsx) you guys reckon the 17" would be too small on the car? if seen a few e36 rockin the style 5's and they look pretty good imo, just wanna hear the general concensus before i make the purchase.... ill probably buy em anyway i guess to start my collection haha

    thanks all,
    tom

                  I say go for it...especially if there a good price. If you dont like them then like you said...your wheel collection will be started.

                      he wants $1200 aud for them... few dings and scratches but like i said, re-furb .... for where i live, my car is concidered "stupidly dumped" by most.... front subframe and sump are about 50mm off the ground, nothing compared to most of you guys haha, but anywho... trying to get hold of the guy so i can arrange to check em out, hopefully will be updating this thread soon with a new set of lm's!

                        I don't think you will have a problem pulling off 17" wheels especially LM's on an e36. Is it a M or non M, 4dr. Or 2dr?

                          The answer is D. None of the above.

                            That's my fault I knew that too. I just saw e36 in the thread and I guess I got a little too excited haha. Damn its early.
