I have the idea of getting the 16v wheels refurbed and putting them back on the car as the more i look at the pics with them on the more i like them so if i can get adaptors of some sort to make the 5x112 fit the 5x120 on the beemer i would put the new wheels that are on the 16v onto the beemer and a fresh newly refurbed set of original wheels back on the 16v........so can it be done Edited by Snake, Fri May 29, 2009 9:20 pm.

The guys in Carrick at Nu Luk wheels are very good and the wheels are not that bad just a blast and a spray should do them.
