    What are some wheels that one usually does not see on an E30?

    So I've always liked a "different" look. Something that makes people look twice. Any suggestions on rare wheels? Kinda looking for old school or some sort of mesh. Thanks!

      ^Those give great break cooling, and when paired with Michelin's super low rolling resistance tires like on that car, are good on gas.

            I've only seen 2 e30s with bbs rk2, mine and sefb22. He sold his though. Really, you don't ask people what they don't see, you look yourself and find wheels that you don't see people using.

                      I'd say any wheels that don't cost less than $100 each or aren't sold on ebay would be rare. :p

                        is it wrong that 14's look big on that car?

                        more like just the right size actually.

                          Gold dayton's. You can find them in reasonable sizes like 14x7 or 14x8 too.

                            damn... i'd actually forgotten about those wheels.

                            new ones go on today... ones ive never seen on a non-M3 E30.
