I am selling my 17" OEM Style 122 rims with Bridgestone Potenza RE050 245/45/R17 Runflat tires and a prospective wants to know if they will fit his 325i?

kali4nia58, what a coincidence!

I'm selling my 17" BBS rims in Taiwan and got a call from a guy asking if they'll
fit on his 320d as well... LOL

If memory serves me correctly, most 5 series wheels will not fit 3 series cars. The offsets are different.

sorry but they will not fit on 01' 325i if your buyer truly wanted 5 series styled wheels he would most likely have to go with replicas

The guy who bought my 138s last year said (via e-mail a few days after he came to town to pick them up) that he put them on his '02 330Ci w/o problems. I can't verify this, however. If so, spacers, maybe?

Spacers maybe. All I know is that guy (320d) wants to buy my wheels and says they'll fit--and keeps bugging me for them!

Only problem, that Quad cheated me out of my 166 wheels so if I sell my old ones, I'll be on blocks for a long time!

Damn you Tony!
