    Best Looking 4x100?

    So, i am starting a new e30 project. i was just wondering which 4x100 wheels people think look best on their e30s? mine is alpine white and was hoping to get 16x8.5 or 9's. if you guys could suggest some wheels that would be awesome.

    Thanks
    Greg

    for 16x9, try borbet type a, type t

    keskin kt1

    Or redrill/adapt something 5 lug.


    I would either redrill or go borbet. theyre are plenty of other options though

      Cool thanks for the 4x100 suggestions. I was thinking about running a 5 lug but is it worth it? how much would that generally run me and where could i find something like that. i know you can use the ones off the m3's but thats saying you can find it, and i feel like that would be a total pain in the ass,

          It kinda is. Theres a ton of 5 lug threads you can look into. But if you dont want to swap, you can run adapters or redrill the wheels

              Thanks. one more question tho. would i be able to run 16x9 w/o rubbing on the rear strut because i have heard if the issue and running some sort of spacer 5-10mm might help?

                Greg, did you see the "new" Beyern 4 lug? 15" or 17", but both are gorgeous.

                  I think you need at least 3mm up front. You dont need to space the back, but a 10 or so would help even it out. Also 16x9s are really best for that stretched tire and low look, dont know if thats your bag

                      if you are looking for 16x9 4x100 wheels, you are pretty much limited to

                      borbet a, b, or t (or replicas)
                      keskin kt1
                      dz exclusive whatevers
                      bbs rs
                      schmidt th-line, modernline

                      and some other random wheels

                      i think they all look good, but can be made to look stupid if you try to put rubberbands on as tires.

                        OP can be my guest to try and fit 255s on a 16x9 thatll poke in the front, but poking tire looks horrrrid


                        Poking tire looks more like daytons ;)

                          im not tied down to 9 wide. 8 or 8.5 works too i just dont want it to look like crap. i really like the Sportmax 501 and the Borbet Type T. but besides those i was also looking into the Konig Remembers, and one other one that is a little pricy the CCW Classic-4's.

                              Well what look do you want? IMO 16x8.5 looks great, as with 16x9 ( ill bre running 16x8.5s soon)

                              And whats the point of the car? i would rather run 17s on a track beast, easier to fit rubber
