i wouldnt hate you if you told me that. but i would hate you if you put those wheels on.

[Il Duce]

But you hate baskets... so do as you wish.

[CorvallisBMW]

I like the spoke pattern, but they need a lip.

[ColdAccord]

would you like to give me an explanation on why?

[VacMan]

Those aren't Hockenheims, those are Kyalami's, see here. Our IS has Hockenheims, which are essentially BBS knockoffs.



OP: TSW wheels are widely regarded as being very soft. The wheels above have several chunks out of the lips from the previous owner hitting potholes. They are also not very light. The reason they're on the car above is they look better than the weaves that were on it and the car was only $600. :D I would highly recommend staying away from those wheels you posted above.

If you're looking for non-standard E30 wheels a good place to look is vwvortex.com. They have a 4x100 forum that sees a ridiculous number of posts and hits every day. Just remember for the most part you will also have to include the price of spacers (~$200) and longer lug bolts or a Vorshlag stud kit ($50) into the price of most of the wheels you find.

Good luck, and give those TSW wheels a pass.

EDIT; BTW, those wheels are only $159 each brand new from discount tire.

okay thanks. we don't have discount tire here. I can check out Canadian Tire and see maybe
but these wheels were previously on an e30 so he has all the stuff included in the price(and the priceis CDN)

I dont like them, no lip, and it looks like the spokes are pushed out in the middle, i would pass...

[VacMan]

Here's a thread that has an E30 with Kyalamis on it. Now just picture them on your car.

[steinbachphoto]

here i photoshopped one wheel on just to seee. I have hubbies right now so anything is an improvment

[asubimmer]

gross.

They look really cheap and I've heard horror stories about their "quality". The steelies look clean. I say rock them untill you have enough money to get real wheels.
