These look quite nice too. I like them with the gold centre/polished lip.
Anyone got a picture of them on an E30?

Looked into a set of these in 16", the guys at their HQ are very helpful, but the wheels are a tad thick by design and wont facilitate any caliper/disc upgrades should you feel the need (and they only come in an extreme offset that will need large spacers (et40 I think - 15mm spacers needed))

They do look nice though, and if you weren't to change your brake kits them they will be ok with a bit of spacing... I thought the black centres would help ward off the modern-ness.

Hope this helps. A bit. :?

Still haven't found any shots of an E30 wearing these yet. Don't wanna get into a situation where i spend £500 on a set of rims only for them to look pants :?

Mine will be furnished with a set of Keskin KT-4's soon, I'll get a picture up for comparison/ideas, although you may see them in the Slapton meet if I get the car back by then...

I have had to take the plunge much like you'll need to. I'n not overly keen but used the lad from abroad with the new chassis build as inspiration. I think the KT-4 is a bit modern too...
