1. They will fit my E34?

2. Are they worth getting for my car?

3. am I the only one who thinks they are a really nice looking set of wheels?

As far as I know, e32 wheels are a direct match.

mmmmmmmmmm

Looks like Ill be pricing up some tyres for these then!

The tyres that are on there now are 240/35/15" iirc... what a strange tyre size!

Those look like exactly like what came with my car, maybe bigger from the looks. Bitch to clean tho :P takes me about 8min or so for each wheel!

That is definately the TRX tread pattern on the rubber. Unless you have money to burn for Michelin TRX metric rubber, avoid them.

they look like the 635 CSI/M6 optional TRX wheels and tires....If so they are 415 mm in diameter......which equates to EXPENSIVE TIRES and 80's technology....Avoid'em. If it is a normal 15" or 16" wheel go for it. They will fit like a glove.

TRX are uber expensive and not so hot anyway. I'm currently weighing replacement options on another car that uses them. Coker tire is the only place that imports them and the current price for my car is now ~$500 each.
Unless the tires are good, which they aren't, it's not even worth jacking the car up for them. Swipe the center caps.
