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.'88 325is: Diamond Schwartz; 210K miles; Koni SA; H&R springs; poly bushings (sold)

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).Last edited by Ian F; 08-04-2010, 07:08 PM.'88 325is: Diamond Schwartz; 210K miles; Koni SA; H&R springs; poly bushings (sold)
