Looking to change wheels on the below but not sure whether to keep it oem or do something different. dont want to spend a fortune on wheels as this is my second e30.

£259 is a very precise amount lol
That car would look good on some 15" BBS with a bit of a drop. Keep it simple and subtle.

At the moment I have 14 inch bmw bbs's, 14 inch bottletops and 17 inch rh toplines. Maybe I should sell/swap the bottletops and bbs's for something?

If you can find a set the ones on my cab suit a prefacelift. A bit of dish but no fannying about with spacers or stretched tyres.

Yes I thought keep it standard too.
Maybe I'll sell the 14 inch bottletops and bbs's, hopefully that will give me enough funds for some good 15 inch bbs's

Yes I like these actually on my watched list at the moment, but don't know if I should keep this one standard and just put 15 inch bbs's on it

They would look soo sh1t on your e30, lovely wheel but with the black centres and you having a standard e30 it will look pants.
If the centres were silver then i would say get them, if they had bigger dishes i would buy them for myself

With a little drop, they would add a nice different touch to the car.

15" BBS always work well and a nice set is within your budget

Maybe I'll just go for 15 bmw bbs and keep it standard.
Thank-you for all the advice.
