    sportmax....002 or 501

    I can't decide which ones I like better. What do you guys think would look better on an e30?

    I've seen pics of both wheels on an e30...but I still can't decide!

    I will be ordering a set (gunmetal finish) tonight or tomorrow...please help me choose!

    I think I almost like the 002 better. They're like Panasports on steroids!

      I say 501. The straight spokes suit an edgy / blocky E30 better, IMO.

        I agree on the 501.

          It does seem like the 501 would look better for the reasons stated, but I find myself liking the 002 better when it's actually ON a car.

              I agree with both opinions....501's seem better suited to the body shape...but the 002's look mean ON a car. It is a hard choice.

              I'm going to ebay now to buy a set. Still not sure which one....guess it will be impulse.

              Thx for the input.

                        What ever rim you get, post a picture of them on your car. Cause i'm thinking about getting one of the sets that you posted. But i'm leaning toward the 501's
