Steel Wheels from an E36??

I could use the help of someone familiar with steel wheels.

These are 6 1/2 x 15H2 with the following markings in the outside face of the wheel.

IS 47
SRD
15120801
03 (over) 99
T3
BMW
1095 (over) 006

When I checked RealOEM.com I could not find any of the above info, and I could not find any BMW Part Number on the wheel. These wheels have Blizzaks (sp) mounted, so if the p.n. is stamped on the inside rim, I could not see it. The plastic wheel covers resemble those for an E36 3 series.

My initial thought is that they are not compatable because they are 6 1/2" vs 7"

Thanks,

Craig,
I think this is the same wheel we have on our 1997 318i. I will try to check tonight. But, on Real OEM you will find both 6" and 6.5" steel wheels, silver or black for the e36. The offset of 47 is correct for a 6.5" wheel. If the bolt pattern is 5X120 then I would say they should fit any e36.

If I can find those markings on my wheels I will post again.

Scott

Craig,

these are definitely E36 wheels. I have one (spare) on a 95 318iC. It will bolt up to an E34 but I'm not sure about clearance problems since the offset is different. You could use a 15-20mm spacer and longer bolts, but they are $$$$.
