    BBS vs. 15" Nogaro Silber OEM wheels

    So, seeing as though good sticky tires in 14" are going extinct, now that my beloved ES100 is gone, it's a prefect excuse for me to replace these 21 year old wheels.

    I like the BBS for the simple fact that they are easy to clean, and possibly lighter.

    I also like the Nogaro Silber wheels.

    What, if any, 15" BBS wheels are still available new in 4 lug for the E30?

        I know, that's what I will do if there are no good BBS alternative.

          Style 5 is the only 15" weave style 4x100 BBS left in production, unless Volkswagen has an OEM set around still but I doubt it. You might be able to find a NIB set of RS' or RM's but they'll cost you a small fortune.

            I see used BBS RS in 15 that you could restore.

            Kinda depends on your budget and goal for the wheel.

                  I have decided to get this. I am probably going to go with the 16," but the 15" is only 10 pounds per wheel, so I am kind of waffling between the two sizes.

                  And I also found out that you CAN get the black caps and not this ugly red caps.

                      The RG-F that I decided to get is pretty darn easy to clean compares to the weaves, no?

                          Other than price, what do you find objectionable about these wheels? 12 pounds per wheel for a 16" is very impressive.
