          The color is royalblau metallic? I think Liqued12 has the same color on his car too. Love it, only seen one on the road.

          I'd rather have that than diamanshwartz. Almost. How do those 18" handle? Or should I not bother asking?

              What kind of wheels are those? How wide? What offset? How much?

              I would run those in a heartbeat, screw you big rim haters :P

                Other than the exhaust and the auto transmission, that car is gorgeous. That color blue is really nice; I've seen it on an e30 M3 and it looked great. I'd like to have an e30 cabrio some day.

                  Bringing this thread back from the dead...Do you think those Kerscher CS wheels are too big? I am thinking of going with the same size in a work VS.

                    I have 17's and I am a big wheel fan so I think those look just awesome. Only problem with bigger wheels IMO is the weight and loss of power.

                    I'd put those on in a heartbeat

                      What do you do for a living to afford that? Dayum. I say go with 17's but 18's would make the car really unique, but with the rubber bands you'd be rocking I would worry about bending the shit out of one of your pricey wheels on just about any large pothole....215/35/18 tire size LOLZ.

                      P.S. - I miss Greg :(

                        I am in healthcare! ;) I would worry too about the wheels being so easy to tweak. I am not sure what I would do if that happens, but hanging myself comes to mind.
                        I had some 18" Mille Migla (sp) on my Jetta IV and bent those...that was wonderful. I can say I would be driving careful, but you never know. The one thing I have going for me is the car is a 5 times a month sort of car. :)

                            WOW! Old post here. I love this e30, (one of my all time favorites)actually used to be a wallpaper on my computer for awhile.

                            The rims are awesome, I'd just go with 17's, not 18's. I actually found a guy in LA that could get these shipped from Germany in a 17 for like $2500. It was a long time ago I called about 'em, right after I did my euro bumper swap.
