    I think they'd look great with the centers painted gloss black, and the lip polished to a mirror shine. yes they're very heavy (I wouldn't be able to stand them for that reason), but not any more than your average bling wheels, and it's not like he is racing on them.

      Well, in that case, you're 100% right. One of the hottest wheels ever made for the E30. There was a car at the PNW Picnic last year that had them.

      And nando is right, they are heavy, but I'm not racing on them. They're for looks, my auto-x wheels will be weaves. I am planning to have these refinished and powdercoated next year. I'm going to have the centers done in Nogaro, and have the lips re-machined, with the whole wheel re-clearcoated. There's a powdercoating shop here that can do the machining as well as the color, and they can match Nogaro perfectly.

          Those actually do not look that bad for a 5 spoke. I pshoped them on my car do they still make them? Who cares if they are heavy a newly built S52 will take care of that.

            Ill agree to that. I think they'll look badass Josh. Cant wait to see pics of them installed.
