    Nice Ben, really liked th RA's but Im sure these look nice, cant really see too well in pics. Did the E28 origionally have RA's as it came from Schnitzer/BBS?

      First 2 in my driveway, the rest at east rock park in New Haven. It's a great spot for pictures.

      Thanks Brian, yeah I like the RAs a lot too (I have 2 sets of them lol) but I wanted to switch it up. They were the original wheels on the Schnitzer car as it had a bunch of designated BBS parts on it (air dam, mudflaps, stripes, etc.). We'll chat at Gfest tomorrow, I need to get the name of the refinisher in MA that you used for your wheels.

          Thanks for that. I'll have to check out East Rock park.. New Haven gets a lot of bad rep but it looks like this will make up for it.

                My father just picked up a real clean E28, I'll have to send him the link to this thread. This car is totally cool.

                        That is one of the nicest e28's I have seen. I really love the color and the stripes on the sides and with the new wheels looks very good.

                          Those wheels refinished in silver would look hot on your car. I've seen it several times at different events and it always look good to me.

                            What's the model, color combo, etc.? They make great driver's, but living in the Northeast means it stays in the garage during the cold months and I think they have are more rust prone than E30s. Plus the car just clicked over 73000 original miles.

                            Yup, it's an '83 528i with Schnitzer GmbH stickers in the door jam and lots of other subtle things. Supposedly its one of a 5 or 6 ever built so I'm just trying to enjoy it and attend to the mechanicals on it. You are absolutley right its a great driver and its nice not to worry about scratches, but the bird shit still pisses me off lol!

                            Thanks again! It's unique and the stripes are BBS ones.

                            Thanks! We've never spoken before, but thanks for the compliments. I actually prefer the look of the black centers now, but who knows what direction I'll take with the wheels. I've got 2 sets of staggered BBS RA's to play with so I may just polish the lips on these and leave them be.

                              Some pics my buddy Justin took a few nights ago with his '69 2500. He is a much better better photographer than I am and has a great eye for this stuff.
