They Are the wheels im saving up for. Really like them. Did u buy off ebay? Cant wait to get mine. Shame they dont do the 9j wheel in e30 fitment.. I saw them on an a mk2 golf a few months aga and instantly wanted a set. Nice to see that they look good on a e30

Lose the spoiler and the rear lights IMO

As for the wheels. I like them, but I dunno, somethings not quite "right" to my eyes. I think it's because the spokes go inwards from the centre part. Not straight up, or have an outward lean to them.

Hi these are Calibre Vintage 17"x8j with a 16mm spacer all round 2x205/40 tyres on the front,and 215/40's on the rear.
And for those of you who are NOT keen with the spoiler i could take it off but there are so many converts without spoilers yes they look good and why be the same!Oh yes they are 4 stud

[tonybtonyb]

Hi mate these rims are 17"x8jx4 £480.00 or you can get them 17"x9jx4£???

[SpencerLavery]

Looking good!

Chuck some BMW centre cap stickers on them, will improve them 100% I reckon.

[Jhonno]

Ditch the rear lights and get a new Front Spoiler..

I actually don't mind the boot spoiler. Looks pretty good.

I think you need 215/40's all round and to go lower to pull the wheels off though, something doesn't look quite right currently. Maybe it's the undersized tyres and lack of front spoiler..

[tonybtonyb]

Hi the front spoiler is in the bodyshop,i'm going to lower the rear of the car having some new springs fitted aswell,will be changing the rear lights in the near furture!
Thanks for all your comments will get some new pic's up when everything is sorted

[German-Whips]

They look spot on!

[tonybtonyb]

Cheers fella!

[NicF]

Lot of criticism.. I think it all looks good, more lows but as said they're on the way!

[harry_p]

i thought i would like them, but having seen proper photos rather than the promotional ones off the advery i don't like them. they just look wrong somehow whether it's the curve of the centres or the shape of the dish i don't know.

[tonybtonyb]

Hi harry when i saw these adv in a mag they looked ok but the curve centre of the rim did put me off until i saw the rims on a black golf and boy they looked stunning.Seeing these on a motor in the flesh made all the difference! better on a car than in a picture.

[ali50ferrari]

ordered mine today for my royal blue e30 cab with mtec1 chromie bits on it i thibk its gonna look coooool and at a bargain price! cheaper than the guy who started this thread!

[brettE30cab]

Get sone pics up soon as possible please, I'm on the verge of buying a set for my calypso cabby, how much did you pay, I only need wheels no tyres

[tonybtonyb]

Hi chaps i paid £440 for my rims but now they have gone up in price £480/£540 without tyres,and don@forget you will need 16mm wheel spacers,long wheel bolts.

[dazleeds]

realign the doors,its ruining the line of the kit
sort front spoiler
60/50 drop should have it sitting nice

like the wheels a lot , maybe colour code the spokes and centres

[N2MYE30]

The spoiler has gotta go! I do think that you need more rubber around those wheels. Nice car though.

[brettE30cab]

Do you need spacers all round to fit these wheels? Anyone know the cheapest place to get them?

[Andy325i]

Nice looking cab
