What wheels should 1552 make next?

[SA E30]

16x8 caps are FTMFW!

[chrislane31]

or bottle cap or ...

[Wh33lhop]

So far though, a 16x8 weave is on the table?

[chrislane31]

We are feeling everyone out, but making these takes time.

So chrislane31 what have you dicided on as im am starting to think about buying some wheels and if you are going to go the 16" basketweaves then im a customer.

[woodisgood]

These look a lot like 16" bottle caps. I kinda like em..

[Wishno87]

I want too see 4 lug hartage classic c reps in 16x8

This with a nice lip would be cool

One day you guys will accept 17s, smaller decent tires are getting harder to get every month.

I Think 16's are for the most part too small far E30's.
But alot of people think 17's are toobig for E30's.
I personally love my 17 inch kosei k1's.

I'd rock a wide bottlecap over another weave, if I want wide weaves I'll go with ESM or Konig.

NO ONE makes a simple 4-lug 16" weave, it's a wheel that desperately needs to be made for E30 applications.

konig remembers are pretty close minus the centerbore difference, although not 16x8 (as you know).

i think 16x8 alpina reps would be a good compromise.

x2. I'm guessing offset should be 20-25 for it to fit?

Although before I'd be interested, I'd have to know:
-Where are they made (China?)
-How are they made (cast, forged, billet, etc)
-Any warranty?
-Nice to have: other bits of MFG info (stress testing, alloy details, etc.)

BTW I remember 1552 v1 and dig what you guys did... Jetta coupe, Mk3 VR cabby, koenigseder WB, etc, etc. I'm a big fan! :-D

They are made in Taiwan just like 99% of all wheels
Low pressure cast
Warranty on the finish
I can check on the mfg details

I second that. I still have my "Project X" shirt that I wear occasionally...

[Wh33lhop]

What's already been said a thousand times: good offset 16x8 weaves with a slight dish. Bigger bottlecaps would certainly be interesting, but I doubt it'd be interesting enough to spend money on.

[She loved E]

These are the stock 16x7 BBS weaves that came on the Sport Evo M3. My friend Ted (uofom3) has a set of these on his M3, they're incredible. These wheels in 16x8 on a standard E30, in 4x100 fitment would be a dream come true for TONS of E30 owners, way more so than a 15x8 bottlecap. Give them about a 1-1.5" lip, and they would be absolutely perfect.
