hey
i live in bc too (white rock) and i have 2 sets of bmw wheels, the basket weaves, which im thinking about keeping for track use, and the stock ones, which used to be my winter wheels that i never used:P i got a set of 17inch motegi wheels recently so both are just sitting in the garadge, actualy the old winter wheels are at my friends house i think? i can't remember. umm but anyways you can have those they are 14 inch. they are 4x100 spacing, if you have a 5 bolt that would be a problem, but if your 4 bolt id consider parting with them. (they are refinished wheels) i did them last year.

also you could phone arround and looked for a wrecked new bmw or audi or prelude or somthing with nice seats you like and pull them out of that and get seat mounts made and put them in, and you would have nice new comfy seats

Thanks for the info, My friend owns Tomcat auto (euro wreaker) and I got some seats out of a newer Bimmer, just not sure if they will fit. used Nicer seats but OMG who ever came up with the plaid cloth should be hung

and if they dont fit just go to a custom auto shop and they'll fit them in there for ya with some fabricated seat mounts, trust me making your own is a reall bitch! and im prolly going to do it again soon and thats what i look forward to least!
