What about trying to find a Nardi woodline or blackline wheel. Gorgeous looking things and made for E30s.

mtech 2 ones nice; but a M3 one is even better!

Yep, straight swap. The touring came with a after market wheel with a boss kit, but i found that too small, and ugly compared to this one.

I got the center piece with the wheel...i was planning on getting that re-trimmed in alcantara aswell, but never got round to it.
