BBS RS or BBS LM

What do people think about new wheels.

Had a chat with Retro_wheels.

My dad did say he wanted Lms but don't come in the right sizes in 17s.


Heres Lms

Heres the RS






They will be going on the car in my sig.

And most likely nogaro centres and polished lip

[JohnnyThunders]

I preferred the LMs .

[e30-320i]

both but rs's for me with or without painted centres

[munky30]

lm's. less fussy. The rs just look like standard wheels with a dish.

[Retro_wheels]

Rs's

As they are an older design i think they suit the shape of the E30 down to the ground.

I love LM's i recently did these:




But i think in this case Rs's are more suited, Lm's are more E39 than E30 IMO

[maxfield]

It's a very hard decision if you ask me

Atleast i'm not paying for them

[Retro_wheels]

Maybe this will help

[maxfield]

Tease

[Retro_wheels]

or maybe this will help

[maxfield]

Damn the RS are a fine looking wheel

then so are LMs

[Eddie25]

I agree with Retro wheels. The E30 has classic lines so needs a classic looking wheel imo. LMs are still gorgeous wheels but somehow a bit modern lookin for the E30.

[Eddie25]

Then again the more i look at the LMs. Just put a pair of each on either side

[DaveD]

rs/rm 's

[tobias]

rs every time as retro says lm suit the e39 much more than the e30

[munky30]

As much as I'm not a fan of them and disagree with the whole 'only old wheels work on the 'old' e30' argument, they can look very tasty when done well.

rs/rm 's

Do Rms come in the right stud pattern and ofset for E30

Munky looks awesome

[Retro_wheels]

RM's are a 2 peice split available in 4x100 6.5x15 as standard with varying offsets apart from the edition white which came with a 7inch basket making them 7.5x15. where as the RS is a 3 peice wheel with a different center cap and a looser weave to the RM also the Rs is available in alot of different sizes and PCD's

[doughboy]

lms are very nice, but those rs are just georgeous

[harry_p]

17in RS are the nuts. theyre what my car would be on if i could have found / afforded someat the time!

remember they are a period perfect wheel for the e30, especially the m3, all of which came on bbs cross spokes as standard, and some were specced with bbs rs wheels from new.

[snoops]

definitly the rs's with nogaro centres

[m3ben05]

you and your dad already know what i think!

RS's are the best e30 wheel bar none

[maxfield]

Keep the opinions coming

Ben - knew you would chose rs

[dips346]

Lm for me as harder to come by and too many m3s have the bbs rs now

[maxfield]

Very valid point

[e30_nut]

LMs for a motorsport look, RSs for a authentic euro look.

RSs all the way

[maxfield]

Also Lms are probably easier to clean

[Retro_wheels]

Lm for me as harder to come by and too many m3s have the bbs rs now

how many have run 18" RS's though?

[dips346]

[Frenchy]

LM's for me.........Kin Sexy!

[R4N_S_S]

i agree toatlly with Dips.

LM's rock and are so much more rare

bit like the type 5's are getting old now, even though they look good, they aren't as fresh as they were

[Retro_wheels]

How are they rare? i can get you a brand new set now if you wanted!
