Original 14inch BBS are the best cost effective wheel, if you have deep pockets some BBS splits also look great on an e30

Prepare for a million threads telling you that ONLY BBS look good on an E30. They do look good, but I think quite a few retro wheels fit too, they just want to be in keeping with the car.

They don't make bm's like this anymore!..They should.

A member on here has Rota Grid V's. First time i'd seen this wheel and i think they look fantastic, something a bit different.

Back in the early/mid 90's a friend had a Diamond Black 325i Sport (Tech-1) which had been lowered and fitted with a set of 17" Venoms and it actually looked great at the time.brettE30cab wrote:Tsw venoms!!!

The Wiki need updating with 15" Hartge wheels (I don't know how to do that)Grrrmachine wrote:Who needs Google when you've got the Wiki?

Sorry best photo of them I have.
I think the 15" Hartge's on my car are actually E21 wheels as they have the wrong offset but they still fit.

How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.
