        For some reason, I don't know why, nothing above a 6-spoke wheel looks good on an E30 to me. 5-spokes are awesome, 6-spokes are my favorite. But every 7-spoke wheel I've ever seen on an E30 just looked like ass to me. Like I said, I don't know why, they just do.

            they would probably look alright on a e30...not great. It would help a bit if they had dish. Are they really light?

              Not in 7 spoke though. They just look like a Honda wheel to me. But like I said, that's just my

              Here's the GT2:



              Very nice. But if I'm going to get SSR's (which I think I may), it's going to be the Comp's:

                    Never been a big fan of Alpina's. They are just too busy for me.

                        Most likely Tire Rack and too much.

                          are they light as fug? I would like to find some really light simple ones and although josh might have a point with the spokes i would think 7 thinner spokes would more even spread support through the rim to prevent a bend.

                          I will agree that they would look better with a lip. I hate wheels that have the hub face out so far as to accomodate FWD cars and then just build of the faces to meet with RWD cars. We have the room for dish, it should be required.

                          I can understand why some people dont like the Alpinas, they have that old school bling appeal to them. They tend not to mesh as well with modern looking cars as much.

                            The GT2 is sick, and I like the GT7 too. I'd rock any of the 3 (GT2, GT7, Comp).

                              gt2 and gt7 are like 460 bucks a pop

                              comp is like 400

                              prices for 18's btw, other sizes are cheaper

                              i really like the gt2 but it doesn't come with anthracite centers. plus my car doesn't have a rwd offset-dish is hard to come by without some really wide wheels.

                              advan rg's are also dope but the comps are lighter and cheaper, so unless you want a gold rim there is no reason to pay for advans.
