Help me choose a wheel color!

I guess I wasn't reading right, I thought those sportmaxxs had the +15 offset. I def. would not go for the ET 0, but the +15 is still very tempting. And they're half the price of the LS/Alpinas.

you got it right - the 6spoke sportmax wheels are +15, the 8-spoke panasport style ones are +0

We do not sell the new style Alpina replicas.
We only sell the original Kopi wheels-a knockoff of the Alpina Classic wheel.
The Alpina replica wheels on E-Bay are from China and not nearly the quality of our wheels - we are the only distributor in the USA and UK of the Kopi wheels we sell.

On your e30 I'd go with Ls's, euroweaves, or even RZ's before sport max's.

If you're talking about the new style alpinas that abrahams is selling, I'd pass on those, they look like ebay wheels, original Kopis(that sounds funny) definitely look good on a red e30, there are quite a few of them already so if that doesn't bother you, go for it.

Ya I love Kopis on red cars, though I have never seen them on DB car. I'm not sure about the 17", I'm thinking it would loose too much in ride and tire price compared to 16" or 15", without any gain in performance. And I appreciate the comment on the LS's, that's where I am leaning right now. Those Alpinas I was looking at are the one for sale by euro3, and he did polish and paint them all nice. plus he's throwing in a few euro goodies. But I still like the Ronals more. Someone should snap up those wheels though, they are hot.

This guy runs them on a DB e30,

huh that looks pretty good. why must you make this decision harder!!!? :) I still dunno about 17" though, that's an awful small sidewall. I'm worried i'd shake my kidneys loose.

17's? nah, they aren't too bad.

I vote silver for the cleanest look of the bunch. I've got 16's on my ride and they're mistaken for 17's quite often. 16's seem plenty big for the E30.

Euro weaves are a waste of money. Get Borbet B instead of Sportmax.

I might be wrong but I think Borbet b's are out of his price range, if he's comparing euroweaves, sport max and kopis, I think I might be right.

Sport max's can be had for what like $500 shipped?

Borbets will cost you about $1100 shipped without tires and spacers.

You can't even compare the two.
