[jeffSDguy]

Lucky, what is he going to do with the basket weaves?

[e30BMart]

Ok let me just say this.

[Kershaw]

of course. it worked so well for vlad...

[8380 Labs]

are you being serious?

[Kershaw]

You better have those cleaned up and on your car for friday! Also, please don't go gold, stick with either a Nogaro or a really clean and bright silver, it's so much classier. I know you're rice an all....

i'm thinking zinno centers with black lips and zinno bolts. it will match my zinno ix.

what do you think?

[e30m3power]

I'll respectfully disagree. There are several wheels out there that suit the E30 perfectly, I by no means think that the RS is the single best one.

Understood, we can't all like the same things right :)

[TexasTerp]

Hey OP, you suck - and by that I mean you suck cock. You better have those cleaned up and on your car for friday! Also, please don't go gold, stick with either a Nogaro or a really clean and bright silver, it's so much classier. I know you're rice an all....

btw, wanna help me get the engine block out of my trunk sometime this week?

[Deltron Dirty30]

I'm downright jealous of OP. Congrats man.

but believe or not I'd rather have M systems over rs'

Agree....... I just picked up a set of BBS RG's 15 x 7 in trade for ACS type 1 rep's 15x7. I then put them on my dads e30. I run a set of BBS RS reps 16x8 on mine.

[Nairb]

No hate here, glad to see another e30 rockin' the RS's. I would rather see them on an e30 than on some shitty stanceworked Jetta or Golf.

[sticksdaman]

Like RS knockoffs?

But seriously, sweet trade OP.


I love RS's and (as previously stated) despite what the internet may portray, they are rare wheels. You almost never see them in person outside of the occasional euro meet. They're a beautiful, classic, strong, lightweight, multipiece wheel that looks perfect on a classy high end luxury car or even on the race track.

There are plenty of reasons why the RS is so coveted, evidence of this can be seen in the numerous companies seeking to profit off of the timeless design, about 15 years after theyve been out of production.

[Jand3rson]

Not sure why the RS hating is so strong. There are alot of wheels out there but NONE (IMO) that suit the E30 like the BBS RS.

[QUKBMER]

Great score.

[e30m3power]

Definitely a pain to clean.

But why are they considered over priced? Isn't it a supply and demand thing.

Are they easy to buy on here? Back in '06 I waited for a year and a half to get a set from Germany. Was most likely because of the sizes I wanted though (17x8.5 and 9.5) but how can I expect something so hard to come by to be cheap??

[blefevre]

They are great wheels that do fit the E30 perfectly. However, they are over-priced, over-played, and hard to clean, imo. I think that is where most people are going with this. I don't think people actually hate RS's. I'm sure some of it is jealousy too though, not sure why, they are just wheels people.
