Comparison - Hartge vs. Hartge Style Wheels

[Robots5]

My E30 currently has 5x120, 16" BBS wheels. I purchased the car a few months ago and am currently looking for a Hartge set. Pretty difficult!

I want to go with a smaller, 15" size but having trouble finding a 5x120 configuration. I saw these copies on the net but they just look different than the original.

Any comments or photographs to compare?





VERSUS









10 vs. 11 spokes?

That's because they're shitty replicas made by a shitty guy.


Hartge made the classics in 5x120, they were made for early 80's 5 series, you can still see them pop up from time to time. They only came in monoblocks though, never 3 piece like the ones pictured.

Thanks I guess my only option is the mono 16" size then

Actually it isn't . I have a complete set that needs to be refurbished. Pm me if interested the set is 16" x 7 and 8. I actually was planning on listing them shortly.

The red e30 you posted are 1pc copies of Hartge wheels. Hartge did make 1pc 15x7 5x120. They do come up for sale.

Here is a pic of 16" 3pc Hartge wheel.

Yeah I would like a 15" but have never seen it online. I'm okay with a replica if it's 90% accurate but those just don't look right

I think the Alpina copies are much better

Hartge stuff comes at a price and it's much easier just to buy modern stuff. I just really love that old school look though
