325iX Wheels on MCS???

Anyone know if you can run the 15" BBS Basketweaves from the 88-91 325iX on the MCS? I know the bolt pattern is right, and offset is very close, but are there any other issues...

And if so what size tire? My MCS is bone stock.

I ask b/c there's a set taking up a corner of my gararge wrapped in 225/50/15 Yoko's from my sadly deceased iX.

Can it be done? issues with these on the track?

Dunno but I'm about to find out.

They are 41mm offset, and they look to be VERY close to hubcentric. I have a set in my garage and will report back on Monday.

Great minds...

Marty
