Some pics of the chromie on the unidentified cross spokes

Took a few pics of the car with its new shoes on. Had them on there about a month now, and I've grown to really like them - the low offset made me a bit wary at first, but now I actually like the way they sit, gives the car a nice wide stance.

Looks much better than it did on bottletops!

If my mind isn't messing around at the mo, those are genuine BBS wheels, but not "built" for the E30.
Those are the pre-15" officials. It's to say, one of the first generation 15" crossspokes, after the 14". Therefore the bigger ring. Take a genuine 14" BBS crossspoke and you'll notice that they just have a ring around them to get the 15".

They're 16" wheels - they do have a mark/logo on the inside, but it's not BBS. Also, they're stamped "made in belgium". Apparently, they're the perfect offset for an E21, so i suppose they might have originally been on one of them.

a couple more pics.

sorry m8.
strange how they made me think about 15ish wheels.

But the fact is: they look good on the car :)
