    Favorite rims/tires for your E30

    Anything goes, what you do and don't like on E30's. Your opinions of why one kind is better then the other blah blah blah. BUT, one rule they have to be 4 lug not 5.

    Id love to get my hands on a set of OZ Turbos



    And maybe run some wider lips on them...

    I have 15" BBS RS, 15" Schmidt Modern Line and 16" Borbet A - all of which i like on e30s (even if the RS and Borbets are on every 2nd car...)

        I really like the 16" style 5s(redrilles)
        I do NOT like the rc090 style 5s as I feel 17s are to tall for the e30, its a very narrow car

          I can honestly say that I own one of my dream sets of wheels. OZ Futuras.

            There are sooooo many good choices and it just depends (for me anyway) the car they are going on. My tstars look killer on my coupe but would totally out of place on my cabrio.

            I think that in most instances, euroweaves look great no matter what.

                  Enekei 92's are an awesome wheel for the E30. E38 style 5's as others have said are also a great choice.

                      We have enough of those on E30's in Colorado :P

                      I like:

                      RS's (as played out as they are...it's hard to argue that they don't look good on an E30)
                      Gotti's (I plan on picking up a set of these at some point)
                      Futura's
                      Euroweaves
                      Ronal LS's
                      Borbet Type A's

                      Those are a few wheels I'd like to own at some point haha

                          Basketweaves from an IX is what I would take. I found out I need spacers though lol. Anything resembling a basket weave rim is what I really like but I'm open for opinions and options at all times.

                            If you like basketweaves you would like whats already be recommended. The e38 style 5's are great.

                              Yeah! I want a set of re-drilled E38 Style 5's with 10mm spacers in the front and probably like 12-ish mm in the rear.
