Waiting for the dishes to turn up, and on the look out for 2 more wheels, get them all refurbed, then sell the other set.

Not going on the cab, but the e21.

Ollie, as you have asked, you interested, if so, you'll have first dibs, but the sizes will be 8 fronts and 9 rears, on both sets.
Still waiting for 2 more sets to be delivered.

They'll be going in the oven tomorrow evening, as they split so much easier.

having split a set of RS' i found they split very easily by placing a length of 2x2 against the lower part of the rim just above the seal and hitting the other end with a large hammer

The oven method is easier, leave it in there for 10 mins, no real force needed then to seperate them.

Yes they do, all size dishes can be obtained.
If people are interested, i can refurb them to your own spec and centre colours.

No, Alpina's staying on , these are strictly for the E21.
They will look the 8ollocks on the E30, but not with a kit on,more the euro look.

I would be curious to have price on these in the future.

Looking at the prices BBS splits make i'm tempted to speak to Image wheels about some wheels once i've got everything else sorted. Anyone got any experience of Image wheels?

No probs, will keep you posted.
Now had any experience with Image, but have heard good things so far, nothing negative.
