      Hero, if they are rice import wheel, but light and work and cheap and rock, SO WHAT.
      SRT4 people rock them, I guess I could find out more by reading their forums but curious if anyone knows what's up with them here. Or why more people don't rock them.
      bending and breaking, you could easily end up spending much more money buying more wheels tires due to the fact that they fucked up when you hit a pothole

            oh yeah. I saw them on ebay after many events and don't think any were bent. They don't look that cool on the car, but fuck.....who cares.

            wtf?


            I thought it had a 4G43?

              I was just speculating, I can't imagine that they're any better than Kosei K1s, which crack often in 17" form on e30s

                These are pretty popular on E30s I have seen here in Germany at the Nurburgring.

                ATS is regarded as a pretty damn decent wheel company, here - not BBS, but they're good.

                I have a friend here that races VW Golf II's --- he has been involved in true competitive motorsport (road racing, working at endurance races on the 'Ring, etc) for about ten years - he has recommended them to me before.

                I personally don't like the look, but I'd consider them for sure, if I was after a track wheel.

                    They are to tall and skinny why would I wand bigger wheels when the are only 7 inchs wide and get a thinner profile tire to get a crapper ride?

                    ATS are good quality German wheels. They won't remain cheap due to dollar value and it will reflect in their pricing soon.

                    AJ the roads are smooth in Germany hence why guys run them but could you imagine running a set on the Cross Bronx expressway? Or in Boston for that matter they would be torn up like BimmerMutsi..

                    Larger rotational mass and same width, nah Stock EU-baskets would be fine with me.
