I have 17" pinas and the ride is pants most of the time, and im sure the ride quality is doing little for the car. It just comes down to the look of the reps that does it for me. Have to say that bbs is an all round better choice... :?

I have just had set of 15" cross-spokes re-furbed with the centres nogaro silver als e30M3sportEvos to give personnal touch and on the lowered Zinnobar 325i maintain a genuine factory look IMO and may appear cleaner for longer!!

I remember when I first bought a set of 17" momo arrows for my golf gti. They looked stunning but the the ride was ruined.
You felt every bump and imperfection along the road surface.

Do you have any pictures? I've got a Zinnobar 335 and am looking at re-doing my BBS.
