    New Rims

    I will probably be taking them off because they weigh so much and slow the red dragon down drastically but they look good i think.

          love the simple red/black play of the car.

          looks like much fun to drive.

              kinda look like something found on a drift-wanna-be 240sx. No offense.

                  I think so too. I think the rims look out of place on my car. The oem sleeper look is what i loved . Everyone has a different flavor .

                  Pros:
                  -They look alright
                  -Better traction
                  - I can punch 1st gear feel the torqueyness
                  -Wider so handle better
                  -They have new rubber

                  Con:
                  -They weigh about 22lbs without tires
                  -My basketweaves spinning rubber puts me at about the same place in 1st door to door with my friends e46 e36 M's so no big difference.
                  -Slows down my car noticeably.
                  -Still break traction.

                    they would also need a spacer in back it looks like, they seem too far in. i didnt mind the basketweaves. so. paint the hood. IS lip. and throw the baskets back on and that cars fucking dope. i've also wanted to see baskets with 15 or 20mm spacers.

                        I really want some sort of lightweight staggered setup in a 15 or 16 .
                        The spacer would be kind of sweeet on the back with basketweaves

                          Crappy paint in person or not, that's a hot looking E30. Normally I would hate those rims, but they're not too bad on your car.
