Hello everyone , The time has come to buy my 1st set of wheels ,I'm thinking of going for a stance look however I'm stuck for what to buy, I'm not really keen on going for the bbs hype , so what are my other options? Need your opinion , What do you guys think would look smart on an e30 (320 black,no spoiler/lip,chrome trim)
I've been toying with the idea of Stuttgart st7 to give you an idea of what I'm looking for ,
Thanks Ryan

I like your wheels - do these have a definitive left and right, what would they look like the other way, have you tried it? Like as if the bend of the spoke was with instead of against the revolution of the wheel? If you know what I mean.☺

I haven't tried it but I see no reason why you couldn't do it.

My mates trying to convince me that it will look better, but too much effort with directional tyres
