For sale 325i Sport Turbo & 318i (Sport) M50B25
First batch i wasn't keen on any of them.
Second batch, nononono etc except for number 5 - i like them
Maybe they need to be flatter - ie. not jut back so sharply into the dish, but they're nearly right. I think thye'd look good on an e30.

5/ can you see a pattern emerging?
they are all no for the simple reason that they look poo, especially the last one(an attempt to copy an already copied wheel, it makes the bk's look good lol)
stick to bmw wheels or a tuning company associated with bmw i.e schnitzer/alpina/hartge(not approved

People stick to recognised accepted wheels as they are frightened to express their own opinions on wheels.
I've always liked Hockenheim style wheels

i think the second set was even worse than the first- u really must be on acid to consider some of those
nothing wrong with being individual, it's what sets us apart from the boring mondeo A to B motorists. Just gotta find a set of rims that suits the look of your car or transforms the look of your car. Or you could just spray ur car matt black, match the rims and take the suspension off
i hear its catching on

Nothing inidividual about limiting your choice of wheels to 3 manufacturers.
In fact, the only way to be individual is to commission your own wheels.
It's about making your own choice, which in it's self, is highly subjective.

Brianmoore is a cyborg.
His genes were cross bred and infused with an e30 chassis in the late 80's. He'd be able to type faster but 80's mobile phone technology didn't have the processing power.

If you like lm's then whats so bad about the 'hockenheim' style ones shown in this thread... VERY similar to lm's. Though obviously without the brand name.Falkster wrote:

Theres nothing wrong with them but theyre not my taste. They do differ from the LMs, the LMs are flat faced. All those wheels are very nice but not my taste interms of putting them on an E30.....they may look the dogs on any other car.munky30 wrote:If you like lm's then whats so bad about the 'hockenheim' style ones shown in this thread...
