On a standard E30 I would have a set of Mim alpines, on an E30 M3 I would have a set of LMs (if funds would allow) and a Tech1 I would have a set of Borbet As or RH toplines!!

Im not sure about the black centres on the split rims. It makes them looks too small(well the 15"s anyway).

Those zender turbos will look lovely on an e30. They are an investment and would probably go for more than that on ebay. I may have to buy them actually.

Alpina genuines are lovely, but very boring now.

I really dont like those toplines. They do suit the e30, but are way to council.

Seen some in 18" on a Z1 and they looked stunning! Think they might suit an E30 too if the ride height is 'just right'..... :D

Very true, alpina reps that weigh as much as a fat person must appeal to someone i guess :wink:

i also think its the best suited wheel to the e30,the bigger the better and contrary to popular belief a 17" rep with 205x40 tyre weighs in at 17.5 kg and is only 2.5kg heavier than a 15" bbs with tyre,so not that much of a difference really :tongue:
