On the rim itself please. My bro's just have the size stamped on them and "Made in England". No branding or anything. Cheers bud.

Karl those rims are well sweet ! but the're definately not from an E30 M3 because they had 15's and the later 2.5L cars had 16's.

They could be from an early 3 series, pre E30, E21 series I think it is.
The low offset makes me think rear wheel drive car, so most likely BMW.
Could have been on an old Vauxhall Chevette, they were rear wheel drive.

Have a look through Retro Cars magazine for more wheels like this :wink: .

Nice one, you made some serious profit there - my bro was advertising his for £150! Where did you sell them in the end?
