    Clavin-

    Any guess as to what the weight difference actually was? Are we talking 1 pound? 5 pounds? Obviously I'm just looking for a guess, but hoping to roughly quantify the difference so as to get a better idea of what you mean by "notable."

    Thank you in advance sir.

    Plus I'm thinking about lime green...
    Now THAT would be fucking sweet.

    This is the first E30 i see with Style 32,,

    but IMO E32 E34 E38 and E39 ,, these cars are stunning with Style 32

    ^that's right, lets have some uniqueness about our 5-lug swaps, until we run out of wheel options.


    Just waiting till I come across these, I love your wheels.

    I would not say a boat anchor... but I can feel a difference from my old wheels...

    I am running style 32 wheels in 17"x7.5" form with 215/40ZR17 tires; I picked one up at the same time as my fairly light Kosei K1 wheels with a 225 on there, and I could tell the difference. Not earth shattering, but it was notable. Converting to 5-lug and gaining massive braking power will probably make you forget all about how much this particular wheel and tire combo weighs.

    But since I wanna remain one of the FEW people with style 32 wheels on an e30, go ahead and decide they are tanks ;)

    Everyone know's s14's are totally ghey.




    I'm basically debating running style 4's no center caps or Style 32's staggered. The style 4's are similar in weight/size to my current wheels. The style 32's look awesome, but if it's going to feel like dragging a boat anchor around I'll run my 4's...

    You will definitely be able to tell. But if you aren't tracking your car it won't be a big deal.

    started a topic Style 32's

    Style 32's

    Does anyone have the weights on these(as in actually weighed them, not found them on some untrustworthy online chart)?

    Currently run Racing Dynamics 16x7.5 and am wondering if going to 17x8/17x9 is going to make a drastic difference on account of upping the unsprung weight.
Working...
