    I dunno about rockin 4-spokes...

    Almost thought I found something cool and attainable.
    Diameter: 16"
    Width: 8"
    offset: +26
    pcd: 4x100
    Price: $950

    Add in some of my favorite "extras": lightweight, nice lip, and no need for spacers.
    Just don't think I could rock em :P

    Ew. I guess I'd have to see them on a car, but then I'd probably just go more into detail describing my 'ew'-reaction.

        Quick PS. Ignore my mistakes :P

        Maybe track duty with a repaint, but still not my style

            4 spokes never quite look 'balanced' or something. id have to see them actually on the car, but im thinking id have to go ahaead and say no. but then, function over form. they are a good size, and yoou say they are light. might make a good purposeful wheel.

              The guy selling them said they're light, but didn't post a weight.

              I was just surprised as hell to find a wheel 16x8 wheel that is 4x100 with the correct offset in my state. if these were like 16x6.5 et40 then they wouldn't surprise me :P

                  Tirerack sells Kosei K1 "blanks" in 15x8 or 16x8 (I forget which, but it could be both) which you then can get customed drilled for the 4/100 pattern. It's something like $200/wheel. As everyone knows, those are pretty light wheels and even though they're not the best wheel looks-wise for E30s they surely look better than those ugly 4-spokes.

                      How light? How strong?

                      I have pretty wheels, now I want direct fitament forged ones.
                      Im now E30less.

                        I'd take 'em. The positives outweigh the negatives; lightweight, the lip, quality brand name, unique. The only negative is that it's missing a spoke or two.

                          At that cost I would want to see them mounted on an E30. That doesn't include tires either so you could get a brand new mounted up complete in the winter as sales are slow for maybe less money.

                            15x8 or 16x7.5 I believe.
