Alright people... E36 Wheel Picture Request

[BenM]

I'm looking at some sets of DSI's and DSII's for the 5-lug E30, and was curious if y'all could show me some pictures of what they look like on an E30. I am mainly interested in pictures of DSI equipped non-M E30s, but if you all think the DSII's look better, then I'll go that route.

TIA,
Ben

Well I'm assuming you didn't search and don't know about Kevin's old car, so here you go:

Thanks guys. Yeah, I searched for DSII's and a picture popped up of Kevin's old car. I've seen pictures of it before, and it looks damn sexy. I was more curious if anyone had a picture of DSI's on an E30. Never really seen that before.

Gazellbiege your car looks good too.

e30 pulls off the DS2 wheels pretty well

[BenM]

Yeah, I'm going to pick up a set of staggered DSII's this weekend. I found a good deal on some with Bridgestone Potenza RE050 Pole Position in 225/45 in the front and 245/40 in the rear.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Avoid staggered wheels if possible. Just say no to understeer.

I was aware that staggered wheels are good on a BMW that has a properly set up suspension. Hence why companies like Alpina and Hartge that use bigger sway bars, different shocks, springs, etc. use 205/55/16 in front and 225/50/16 in back on there E28 tuner models. If this is not the case on E30's please edjumacate me why they are different.

Thanks,
Ben

P.S. The car has M3 aluminum control arms, Ground Control Coilovers with camber plates in the front, Koni SA Shocks, Z3 M Roadster 5-Lug swap including Brakes and rear trailing arms, 22/19mm ST Sway Bars, and a few other reinforcement items.

Just easier to set up with out staggers and you can rotate tires easier.

Nice set up you are running, The new control arms must have hurt the wallet.

Well, it's my old man's car, but you don't even know the half of it.

Oh yeah, I remember this car. Why don't you update?

And since you went with E30 M3 5 lug, you should look at lower offset wheels...not E36 stuff...

Get some E38 wheels and call it a day, they fit just awesomely. 16x8" and the right offset and size...have them painted diamantschwarz centers with a polished lip to be different from the others who have them I guess.

Oh my that's sick.
