Hi All,

what do u think TSW APEX in 16" will look like ?

basically, my vehicle is silver in color.

maybe someone can photoshop a pair onto a 4dr e30.

cheers

Utter wrongness - get some BBS 15", they are cheap and great quality, and look sweet.

GAY you should be shot get bsome bbs as Theo says

[orangecurry]

well you did ask for opinions!

welcome to the 'zone

They may look alright dude but they won't be the right offset.

Go for BBS's, you won't regret it!

They will look horrible on E30.

[Gouki]

they'd look ok i suppose, but depends on the offset, may need spacers?

Not keen tbh mate.

Wheels are always such a hard choice, but it's just down to personal preference at the end of the day - if you like 'em, then get them!!

I was also thinking maybe of getting LENSO CONCEPT 5,
but they do them only in 15" and 17"

www.lensowheel.com - wheel is in catalogue as "CF" and "CFE".
the CFE is nicer, it doesnt have those copious amounts of studs surrounding the wheel.

ok, how about LENSO "eagle" or LENSO "bsx" ?

i cant seem to find a local supplier/distributor for BBS.

for those too lazy to look on www.lensowheel.com, eagle and bsx are lenso equivalents of bbs.

i find the lenso wheels seem to be of fairly high quality compared to e.g TSW...

has ANY1 ever fitted MOMO GTR rims on an e30?

has this ever been done???

oh and lastly, this is a WHEEL suggestion and a possible performance upgrade. not sure how it would look.

goto lensowheel.com, check out the GC2 wheel.

one of the local shops here have a GC2 but instead of white its in a regular alloy wheel color. not sure how it'd look on an e30 though.
but its a proper lightweight magnesium wheel.

each 15" rim weighs about 3.5kg!!!!
regular 15"ers weight closer to 10kg each.

thats an unsprung weight saving of almost 30kg!!!!

what opinions...

ohyes, i dont mind being ragged, at this stage, ive only been a retro bmw'er/e30 person for about 3weeks now. so im a e30 newbie essentially. so im playing/toying with ideas!!!

the bbs rims seem to be the in thing... they do seem to be quite BUSY wheels though? yet seem to look ok on an e30...

anyway, a set of 50mm bmw "centre-caps/decals" are on there way to me. so i can "OEM" whatever rim i decide to put on.
