I believe these 17's are the style 44 BMW rims. They are off of a e46 sport.

Looks pretty good bro, wet sanding and buffing will make it even look better and hopefully iron out any imperfections.

No spacers require, they are just stock e46 rims and they will fit fine on our e36's. I don't want to sell the 17's. I want to keep it as a spare but I do have those rims in 16's for $300 with tires if you want?
