    They know we want 16s but will never pay for them haha. I like the idea of mesh and revere mounted centers. I hope the centers are proper not just bolt holes.

      They better be proper for $7000.00+ !! They should lick your balls while the tires are getting mounted for that price.

        They're re-making Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche wheels. $7k is a normal price for wheels. Hell, that's cheap for Ferrari wheels... their special edition ones are ~$12k. They'll be correct offsets and everything.

              True. Enkei reintroduced the 92. Ronal I'm not too sure.

                  Sorry, next time I'll make sure to get RS's so I can fit in and look like every other e30 :D But seriously, the 454's look horrible haha.


                  Go here be happy!

                      These wheels are built for Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Porsches. $10k is a reasonable price for a three-piece forged, low-production, perfect-fit set of wheels.

                        Not to mention, since they dont stock smaller sizes in hardware/ parts, that would drastically increase the price on already expensive wheels, since they would have to source 16 & 17" parts for what, 10 buyers?


                        All the designs look great, and its nice to see companies responding to different tastes, even if this isn't a slam dunk for the e30 community specifically.

                        I think you nailed the points pretty good. A set of old BBS are priced at $3000, any many struggle to justify that price. A company has to at least cover its cost and make it worth its while. There would be no sense in selling a set of wheels less than their cost.

                        Keep in mind, these are forged, engineered wheels. Many of the BBS are cast centers, new and old.

                        I could see someone with a fully build custom E30 M3 going beyond the simple mods that would spend $7k for a set of wheels, I'm sure there have been many. Like the guys that put a new M motor into E30 M3.

                                You're basically the only one with some sense in this thread. HRE isn't making wheels for a crowd full of 25 year old cars worth 3k.
