	That sure sucks, after all the other smart moves as far as parts
interchanges BMW has done in the past:  
	E30 alloys fit 2002s perfectly for +1 fitments.
	E21 steels fit 2002s OK for +0 fitments and fenderlip massages.
	Bavaria/530i calipers = tiis, 528i calipers and 320 vented rotors
		are a nice upgrade
	320i brakes ~= 2000 sedan brakes, upgrade for 2002 rear shoes
	5/6/7/Bavaria/M3 can all use the same wheels
	seats interchange
	
	
	I wonder how much smaller the E36 hub hole is?
