    Finally, found some wheels I've been wanting for a long time. 18x8 Style 32's in shadowchrome.



    Now to figure out what to do with the seats.

          Those wheels look perfect. I know you weren't 100% sold on the Sepang, but I think it's a pretty cool color and nice to have something a little different than the norm. Considering you have a few to choose from, it's fitting that the S52 is the red-headed stepchild in terms of color out of your stable, in a good way.

              Not yet. I have some OEM mounts ready to go in though.

                Thanks, when I first got the car I knew I wanted style 32's in shadowchrome even if they are 18's. I think the bigger size makes them look better because I've had silver 17" style 32's on my white M3 before and I wasn't really feeling it. The gearing is really short on this car so I don't mind running slightly oversized wheels on the street. The car just needed the finishing touches to make it look right. I think fresh DS would have looked awesome but you're right, this is a very nice color and a different look for the classic E30 that's not over the top like bright orange, yellow or mint green.


                Here's the same shot unfiltered...

                      Cool car Barry! I tried to get my buddy to go look at it when it was for sale but it's way better off in your hands. I love the look of the 18's color but imho that's just too large of a wheel for the e30. If I knew you were searching for an interior I could have sold you my spare e30 m3 stuff... but I just bought upholstery for it.
