corrado bbs rims?



So I go out to the garage to snap a pic of a wheel on the wife's 325ix 
so you could compare, only to remember the wife took off in the car 
earlier.  Damn.  I found this pic from an eBay auction tho...

Compared to Kevin's pic at <http://www.deco.net/klc/dcp00468a.jpg> , 
they look very close.

And yes, they are 4 x 100 with 41 mm offset.  All E30 (except M3) are 4 lug.
