    The new wheels, Brock B1 16x7.5"s (56k......Blah)

    Here they are. I went with 16x7.5" Brock B1's. The tires are 205/50/16 Yokohama AVS ES100's. I know a lot of you guys would have gone with 225/45/16, but I opted otherwise. The car is a bit dirty because of all the construction kicking up dust all over this summer. Other recent improvements include having a big dent taken out of the hood and having it repainted. As well as adding the "is" lip on the front. In these pictures the car is lowered on Dinan suspension and groceries ;) . Enjoy.

      B1's don't do anything for me without the dish

        I semi agree. They look pretty good, but the dish would make me love them.

          I thought about the 16x9"s. But they were more expensive, and then I would have to roll the fenders and get spacers...it would all be a huge pain. I agree they would have looked better. But I think these look amazing. They look much better in person than they do in the pics (I think Ken can vouch for that). But I am assuming that you (Jordan) have probably seen the 16x7.5"s in person before. So I am not going to try to convice you or anything...

            I still like them... but without the dish they look way to random off the shelf generic wheel to me.

              Maybe so. I am happy with them though

                Those look awesome!

                I'm on the same page as Jordan in that they look better with the dish, but I like them without also.

                  Brent's right, the pictures don't do them justice. They look awesome in person.

                  His car is one of the best looking e30s I've seen. Clean & Classy (and sporty :D ).

                    Hey thanks man. I'm on that page too...maybe to a lesser degree. But I can't argue with how sweet the 16x9"s are

                      Did you get them from tunershop? If so, how was your experience with them?

                          I can't find any sense in that. Why?

                              Yes, I did. And it was great. Steve is a real nice guy. Very helpful. Plus you can't beat free shipping from Germany in 3 days.
