    Ary, these look amazing. We should talk about helping me out with a set for my alpine 4 door. ;)

    The wheel pictured is a 9" I assume? How much different will the 8" look?

      I know you think this is asking a lot, but maybe if you do what your potential customers want, then you will make more sales. You can't really argue that logic.

      Your avatar is hilarious, ROFL!

        God damn these are sexy.

        I've been thinking about picking up Borbet As for a while now, but seeing these is making me think twice. Even if they are reps, these look amazing.

              ah god that would be so hot. 16x8 weaves would be choice.

                Mother of god. Please don't make flat caps, as I'll then be forced to buy a set of 16x9s.

                  Either way, I'm happy to see a 4x100 16x8 wheel for an E30. now lets just get a weave replica and an alpina replica that are 16x8.
                  YES. Make some good looking weave reps op. Thats all i need in my life. you'll sell boatloads too. Simplicity is key

                    why why why can't you make these in a reverse rim?, it looks just like the american racing outlaw 2's on every shitty chevy pickup in existence, just with a Borbet center, reverse the rim so its less insulting and it looks bigger then i'll buy a set.

                          We want to make something new with a new style and new flavor:)..... We used to make the flat lip borbet in 16" but this new design with the step lip will replace the old ESM-009 design. So far we have had such great feedback on this wheel and will be offering it in many bolt patters:)
