Does anyone have the same set on an E30? If so, can you please post some pics up.

Cheers

Those are bbs rm's, they're such a beautiful wheel when
restored and fitted with 2" lips, 15x8.

leave em well alone fella - they need a total refurb, the tyres are wrong size, the caps are the weak versions (RS caps screw in so are much stronger) and they are silly offset, not to mention only 6.5j. 7j front is minimum and 8j rear is compulsory! save ur Ԛ£Ã”šÃ‚£Ãƒ”šÃ‚£ fella and buy em already refurbed.
