WTF wheels are these?!?

[GaryE30]

Found this car in a junk yard...

If the wheels are worth anything I may try to buy them and sell em. They're not in too bad of condition... no bends or anything.





They're on an e21 so I know they're 4 lug, just unsure of the pattern/offset.

Anyone?

I believe they are UPOS wheels- made in China by "Ugly Piece of Shit" company.


Seriously, they are hideous. Look like crappy chrome wheels. If they're the correct offset for the E21, then they're wrong for an E30.

Testarossa kit FTW!

WTF are the stripes on the back half of the car???? Kinda different, kinda fucked up. The rims might be OK once they get cleaned.

Those look like 40lbs-a-piece-lost-cause rims.

I dont think they would look bad with black centers and polished off lips. They have a nice lip on em...what size are they? You know?

They probably wouldn't look bad like that, but have you ever tried to paint over chrome?? And have you ever tried to polish/grind the chrome off to get to the base aluminum (assuming they're aluminum and not chromed steel....)????

Looks chrome to me. Chrome wheels get surface rust if not properly taken care of.

Boy, that E21 was a hot car back when E21s were the current 3 Series. I'm old enough to remember! He's got the painted grills to match the car color, that was totally a hot look in the mid-80s. He didn't go all the way though, because to totally complete the look, he would have swapped out the headlights for rectangular headlights. That was a hot look too.

Which makes me wonder, what on our cars now are going to be laughed at by the next generation of BMW owners?
