bbs all the way man!! alp reps are for bummers united. :cool:

if you want to use your car for wat its designed for then bbs all day long if you want heavy wheels , vibration etc then use the 17 inch reps.

Loose the Hartge badge, unless you have some tasty Hartge bits hidden away!

Stick with the BBS mate, they do look sweet 8) Rep's have been Rep'd to death...

Do you have any Hartge bits at all, just asking.......Have what you want on the car bud, it's your choice, but be prepared to face some music, if it's not got any Hartge bits....from peeps :)

Loving the car too, looks just like my brothers, except you've got 2 more cylinders :evil:

Got to say mate your car looks very nice,lovely colour and :cool: stance

Why not flog both sets of wheels and buy a set of genuine Hartges or even Alpinas?

Would finish it off nicely!

BBS everytime. Why have reps when you can have the real deal. And they look great on your car!

i think the reps are more eye catching, i have both but people do slag them off here, have had no problems with mine but i don't throw mine around, and the bbs are a fooker to clean its a hard call :?

Door handles are black from factory, they look good colour coded tho.

Heres a pic of my sport on standard bbs, after seeing the two tone job on your wheels im thinking bout getting mine done in the same fashion.

Yeah it is me on bike, was taken at a trackday at croft.

A friend of mine painted my bbs's for me, coloured centers are the way forward in my opinion, dont have to clean dark centers as often :)

Id love to get a genuine set of hartge rims,dont like 15" bbs rims much tbh,i dont see whats so special about them and they are a nightmare to clean!
The best rims for an e30 are genuine 16 alpina's or hartge's but alas hard to find and expensive.

Hey jimerilo,the rvf 400 is a cracker isnt it,ive had two in the past,currently have an fzr400rr.
