    Thats just the angle of the lens. These are 17's and actually fit better than the stockers.
    Aside from that, not all of us want to slam are rides with sport springs, lose all ride quality, and go drifting. :P

    Hmmmm....they should be 16in. Also, they wheel can fit w/o hubcentric rings, but just wait until you drive on the highway. You may very well get a shimmy.

    Nice change from the bottlecaps. Good price too.

    If the wheels came from an e39, I am very surprised that you didn't require hubcentric rings. You may wish to pay close attention when you get up at speeds around 50mph and beyond. The e39 wheels will fit the e34 hub and the fit adjustment from e39 to e34 is so minute and so subtle that you may not realize that you need them until you get up around 50mph and beyond...

    Default I have the same rims...

    ...from a 1999 540i and they will need rings or you will go nuts with the vibrations.

    I will defend my bessy lou's weel gaps till the day I die! As for the hubcentric rings, they fit over the circular howsing that holds the barrings correct? If so, it was a tight fit between the hub circle, and the wheel.
