i voted for the top set. theyre unusual. colour coded wheels always look like theyve been styled by Fisher+Price for a childs toy car

Drag looks very american. DTM looks european. Where E30 was made? Answer the question and you will know which wheels suit your car.

I have my eye on a set of dtm's on ebay at the moment Dave just waiting on the courier costs which might prove not cost effective for me.

I thing i need to fine a set closer to home tbh

The DTM's get my vote.
Drag looks very american. DTM looks european.
I'm with Jan on this one. The American look doesn't sit right on the E30.
This is why I no longer drive an E30......

i`m in favour of the dtm`s, because a lot of e30 owner are all going for the same wheels "chrome deep dish" so why not be differant, but don`t get me wrong the deep dish dose look the bollocks. all so them white wheels with your white body work do look nice.

Drags are much more suited to the classic lines of the E30 IMHO. The DTMs look too modern for it. Modern looking big alloys on an E30 is council in my view. But each to their own, not saying i dont like the DTMs. i do, just not on an E30.

don't get replica wheels, or are the ones on it at the mo replicas?

those white bbs look really good though, but would be a nightmare to keep looking good.
