BBS cross spoke what ever size are a retro wheel and suit chrome turds just like any BBS cross spoke.
this is an opinion not a fact
People who dissagree with that are uneducated and their opinion isn't worth listening to.

The BBS cross spoke is a retro classic and suits many cars including ALL E30's.

Thats not my oppinion, thats unwritten law!

Assuming we are talking about BK scrap, i had some on my 316i, what a heap of shit they were, caused plenty of wheel wobble, they also look far too big for an e30

my plan was to ditch them but i sold the car, the best use for one ive seen on here is to wrap your garden hose round it :)

what the hell is a bottle top?
I thought a 14" BBS was a poor show but bottle tops, who seriously rolls on that scrap these days? Can't people afford a set of decent wheels anymore? I mean I don't have a 4 stud e30 anymore but I ahve a nice supply of 16" rims and I play ice hockey in the field with 15" BBS!
Bollocks to this 24v scrap!
