Hi there
I need some advice pls. A friend is selling some 17" Borbet alloys and they are a 4 stud fitment and they have come of a Ford and they are 7.5J with 205-40-17 tyres Does anyone know if these wheels will fit on a Bmw E30 series
Yes with stud adaptors but you'd also need big big spacers to make them fill the arch. On the plus side atleast you can use a hubcentric spacer stud adaptor and kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Could cost you as much as £130-£200 something stupid just to get the adaptors though. You also didnt mention the offset actually, I'm just assuming from the 7.5J and the fact they are from a ford...
So with some effort Its possible but I'm not sure itd look that good?
