   Hi..I want to add 18 '' STYLE 32 alloys to my E38 but am a novice i regards to where i can get a good set of originals from and for how much ??....
Also can someone tell me what size I would need so the car drives smoothly and whether or not the 5 bolt offset in the 5 series of the same year is the same as the E38. 
Thanks

	The offset is the same for the e38 and e39, at around 15mm (width dependant) I have no idea where locally you can get alloys in Algeria but ebay is as good a place to start as any?

	i have acquired some 19" Hartge design D alloys for my E38. They came from a E39 and the front two alloys require 7mm spacers (hartge quote). The front are 245/30 and the backs are 275/30. Can anyone tell me if i would need to alter the wheel arches (especially the back) to accomodate the new wheels????... also i need to get longer bolts to fit the front two wheels due to the spacers. how long should these be to be legally sound??...thanls
