    I'm biased, but I like Kosei K1s.

    I also loooove Euroweaves. They're a bit pricey, though. Sounds like your car's coming right along!

          I love euroweaves as well, but finding a set within your budget will be tough. For something easier to find, I like TR Motorsports' C1, although 15" tire choices for a daily driver are rather limited.

              15" are too small. 16" give a fresh, updated look.

              Black wheels look like ass. I says "look at me - I want to be a racer!" - basically it looks like a poser.

                  What look/function are you looking for?

                  Get some spacers on your weaves and call it a day.

                    Just buy euroweaves from E30 F34R and you'll get them for like $250.

                          Opinions about wheels wil vary as greatly as opinions about cars. Some like 'busy' wheels. Some love the 'rubber-band' look. Some (like me) care less about looks and more about function/cost. None of them are right or wrong. It's just a matter of what you like.

                          Those wheels are basically larger euroweaves. IMHO, the issue with them on an E30 is the width and limited tire choices. 205/50-16 is about the right height for an E30 and may look a bit stretched on an 8" wheel (we have this size on 7" wheels and 6.5" wheels on both of our MINIs).
