Ebay wheels for sale

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7940112147&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT

This is what the wheels say on them:

AC SCHNITZER GERMANY 8J X 17 H2 ET35 3107A

Any goods guys? Should I bid. I'm currently running on stock baketweaves, the 15" variety. Question is do they fit okay on my car? Any comments or questions on these wheels are appreciated

Regards

Kristian

I'm not sure if they'll fit because the seller's description doesn't state what the bolt pattern is (stock E34 is 5X120, with a 20ET offset).
The 35ET may be the bigger problem. Check Bruno's site regarding wheel specs if you haven't already.

that offset sounds like they may be for a e36 at which point they would need spacers, not good on a e34

Yes Winfred is right. Made the mistake of buying ACs last yr, all dimensions were just fine EXCEPT the offset. The front tires were hitting the struts. We need an offset of like 18-20. 35 is for the non-M E36/E46/Z3. Spacers and longer wheel bolts are not recommended. It may cause premature wear of your front-end components/tires, dynamically handling may be affected so it may not be safe. Not worth it! AC makes wheels specifically in our offset.
