I've found a few with less than 140k for 4k. I've found 2 with less than 120k, that needed something tiny and stupid that people don't know how to fix.

Where are you finding these?

Craigslist, autotrader, cars.com.


Jesus fuck, why does it even matter. All you guys are going to do is criticize my choice, why do I even bother.

thats what i always hear. "it just needs a fuse"........that later turns into a thousand dollars.

Fuck you Oxer. Seriously. I've been saving for god knows how long. I've got a full time job this summer, and 2 when I go back to school. I'm not some stupid piece of shit rich kid. Go put some gay anime shit on your car, stop trying to tell me who I am.

All Im saying is that its a stupid idea since you dont have the finances to be able to drop a lot of money when a problem arises ya fuckhead.

Saving $3k is one thing, being able to make a quick $1k when you need it to fix shit is another. as a student, I dont see that happening.

Where did I try to tell you who you are? Im just trying to help you, no idea why though.


Go buy your $4000 dream bmw, I hope the engine blows up and it costs you an arm and a leg you ungratefull piece of shit.

I have in no way any knowledge when it comes to offsets, but ET18 isn't the same as ET41, right?

I'm not just going to take the POs word for it, I will take a look, I'm not rushing out there and buying the first car I see. Never doing that again. If I have to shop around and wait till I find the perfect car. I will. I'm not rushing that. I just need to sell my fucking car.

Only 31 mms different. .

Depends on the wheel width. Offset is the measurement of the backpad in relation to the centerline of the wheel (which width is needed).

E46 non-ms are one of the gayest stock cars I've ever driven. I can't fucking stand my bro's 330ci. E46 m was pretty awesome and I've never driven a modded e46 non-m but it needs quite a few things to be brought to a fun level imo.

I've never driven an Integra so I have nothing to offer there. But I can say h22 prelude > e46 non-m when it comes to driving fun stock for stock.. Something about the stock mushiness of the e46 that makes me wanna kick the quarter panel.

I **** to say it but getting a fucking e36 if you're limited to 4k. My boy bought an e46 for 4.5k and holy shit was it a pile of dog shit even 2k later.

Don't get mad at me Kielen. Those are just my $.02 even if you didn't ask for them. You should undoubtedly do what you want. Just don't wanna see you regret anything. e46s are good cars and it could work out, I just would've never wanted one in college over the e36 which is cheap and easy to work on. If it were me I'd get an s13 all fucking day and maybe an e30 if it came down to it.

Fuck yourself. I'm not ungrateful, I'm sick and tired of you trying to belittle me.

Sounds like my car.

THe original Stlye 24's made by BMW are 17x7.5 and 17x 8.5 ET41.

Use this:

You can then see how much different the ebay ones will sit compared to the OEM ones.

Very nice.

too bad for you guys, we have plenty of them over here, both imports and locally delivered

Stop pouring salt on my wounds!

I know a kid who imported one then thought he could drift and smashed it into a tree sideways.
Hes now gone and bought an AE86 with the insurance money.

Heres hoping he doesnt do the same thing again

Should have started with a AE86 then on to a S15 imo.

Who the fuck are these new people.
