So I found some 4x100 to 5x130 hub adapters made for VW's and it got me thinking...how would an e30 with turbo twists look like. This is the closest to a profile shot that i've got. I apperciate the help. I'll post a good profile shot tomorrow. Thanks.

You may want to think about whether you're ready to convert to 5-bolt hubs before you commit though. :p

lol. Here's what I was looking at. This set was evidently sold, but you get the idea:

Whoa! Those are some HUGE spacers. I don't think I'd be comfortable running spacers that wide. Plus, the turbo twists won't look good on an older boxy design like the E30. They look good on some Porsches and Audis, but I think the BBS basketweaves are about the best look on this car you can find anywhere.

There you go! I don't know if they're the right size, but you get the idea.

I wasn't even paying attention to the date, but hey, now we know how it looks.
