    You sure you want 17's?
    I don't really like any of the choices in the poll, if you have to go with 17's,
    find a set of used RC's.

      Kopi's, but you'll have to drop the front end a bit.

        I voted Kosei, for two reasons. First the E30 suspension was not designed for rigors of 17"s so the weight savings will help keep your suspension alive longer than a heavier wheel.

        Second, In case you decide to have some fun down the road the wheel is track suitable.

                  Sure you do... and btw, I picked LTW replicas. Part in due to the fact that Im trying to sell mine but also because they are amazing looking wheels. Maybe go kopis. But no Koseis they look like shit. ACS reps would be nice too.

                    No, I would have to refinish yours, no black centers for me, the design of the wheel is lost. Otherwise, yeah.

                    Again, I don't want to have to refinish them, they are not the look I'm going for. I would be all over them if they were finished in standard silver paint.

                      AR1's are arguably the best made wheels there. Not too heavy, either. Cute little lip too.

                        My only problem with them is the requirement of spacers. That's another $200 by the time you factor for longer lugs as well.

                          Not in person, only in photos.

                          Also, spacers are $200 themselves, then you will probably want studs and lug nuts, which I spend another $120 on.

                          I voted Kopis because they are the only good looking rims listed, and fit E30's without anything extra.

                          Let's drive fast and have fun.

                                Azev Type A in 17", just trying to convince you to get something other than
                                standard issue Kopis or Ronal Ls.
