    You're probably not coming from the VW world.

      Not exactly, no. That doesn't preclude me from knowing what wheels are out there in 4x100 that fit e30s though.

          The nice thing is that there are a ton of older wheels in 4x100, but they're usually so small :( I'm interested to see what you come up with :)

            There are lots of 4lug wheels out there that fit the e30 and VW cars perfectly. I wouldnt change either.

                  Beautiful VW's. Someone on vortex told me that RS003's would look silly on a MK1. Boy were they wrong. Love your wife's car and can't wait to see what you do with the E30.

                          I ordered w/ bilstein compatibility, can I throw them in w/ stock struts for now or are they pretty particular? I can wait if I need to...

                            You could, but they are super tall. You won't have any travel and you will probably blow them within a week because they can't handle those spring rates.

                                Really eh? I was always under the impression stock struts couldn't really handle setups with aggressive spring rates. At the very least, it will ride like shit
