Rota Grid CONCAVE - opinions

Just saw these today. http://www.rotawheels.com/wheel.php?id=122

Looking to change my 5 spoke Borbets (Type C???). Undecided on a direction yet. Thinking 15x7 or 15x8.

Car is alpine. Wondering if it is time to think black, color or stay silver rim.

Teal green is nice. Do 15x8

[FL318is]

Thanks. They are growing on me. I am leaning towards 15x8. Teal or blue.

The alpine weiss needs some accent.

I saw a set of the hyper blue on a silver car. Looked decent.

The rims look very clean in their design and the concave aspect gives a nice profile.

Still thinking NOT hyper blue but Teal or Blue. Any more input? I looked at ESM but no colors. Don't want to do white on white.

You can always plastic dip the rotas and switch up the colors.

Good point!

ehhhh I've just never liked those wheels personally. I wouldn't. But I enjoy more of an OEM+ look anyway so maybe my opinion isn't the best

[FL318is]

Yeah, I have been OEM for awhile now. Still like it but its time to stretch.

They look so Tokyo Drift... do not want.

You're hoping for this.


But will probably end up with this.

Ha! Made me Crack a smile.

I actually like the look of Grids and am thinking of doing it myself.
I say go ahead op, do it and post pics. I want to see.

I think the E30 above has stretched and bigger than 15x7 or 8. While I like the idea of 16s I would most likely stay with the 15s. Blue or teal still. I like the white BUT my alpine has about 3 different shades of alpine on it.

The search has begun.

If you got a nice offset and put normal tires on it so it looked NOT stretched or poking out, it would be totally acceptable in my eyes, even with a flashy color. I'm just a stickler for lightly modified, non flashy cars.

The blue would sorta match the M red blue purple logo, turquoise would seem more toward 80s neon. Like gta vice city or something.

I also think a 16" would look better.

Just my opinion remember, and I'm nobody.

navarone is on point with this. there are so many rotas to choose from that would better accent the body style of the e30. TE37s (grids) are a very basic wheel and i just don't like the style much on the e30.

if you insist on the grids i would go for 16s and a slightly less flashy color. i feel like bright wheels are a cop out to draw attention to your car. people should be turning their heads because it's a classy, old bmw that looks fun. not because the wheels blinded them
