Might buy them this evening. Any idea what make they are what they may be worth?

Just not sure if they have enough dish to do the e30 justice!

Would really like Borbet B's! But can't find any and they are probably out of my budget!

they look like they have the same dish as the 15" bbs, how wide are they and what offset?

I'd go for it :cool:

Yes I realise they are 5stud. Just wondering if they are the same as what others refer to as bbs deep dish. Said to be really rare?

Not to pricey, My mate is after £200 quid. Obviously the tyres will set me back a little.

the bbs deep dish wheels are basically the same as the standard 15" bbs but with the 'snowflake' design set deeper into the wheel.... I'm sure someone has a pic somewhere on here
