How about Ronal Turbos :D I think the BMW Junior Team used them. I've got a picture of a 325i in the 1986 European Touring Car Championship wearing them (driven by Markus Oestreich).

Lots of 325i's wearing them on this page:

(Some of them look like the two piece Ronal Racing ones I think)

There is a wheel I know M3's have which is very different. ravs sig use to have a model blue M3 which the exact wheels on which I think look brilliant.

A while ago someone put a pic of some OZ rims which I think were labled as "turbines" which are very 80's

MiM1900s. I am biased, though. :D
I haven't any pics of them on a chromie. IIRC, Ed325i had a set on his 323i.

they only have 195/45 tyres on, offset 37 so you may need spacers to bring them out in the arches a bit
