Will be interested to see what that looks like with banded steelies - don't think I've seen an E30 with them before, only VW's...

Stunner, tec 1 spoiler and red lenses are a nice touch.
Love the euro look, theres too many oem cars on here!
You have the same taste as me, you must be into the Golf scene as well.
Do you get pulled for the tinted plates? thinking about getting some...

Would love to see some more pics of these on the car.
Been toying with the idea of getting banded steels somewhere down the line.

I think 10j will be a bit ovakill unless you are not lowering it by much or unless your having arch work done.yeah_mick wrote:ok mate, just trying to find some nice looking steels to get banded. think im going for 10j rears

im intending on some nice flare on the arches. but ive had a look and even a 3 inch band on the standard steels will stick out the arch by about 2 inches or so.
do you know what offset your wheels were before they were banded???

Wheels were 6.5 x 16 i think, spacers has become an issue for me, the wheels hit the front strut even with a 5mm spacer, they need to be spaced atleast 10mm to clear safely but then the wheel sticks out too much.
