        And your problem with this is? You phrase it like it's something negative. I bought the car to haul kids in comfortably. The trunk will likely never hold golf clubs, but will probably regularly hold camera and dj gear. And my diaper bags are all Petunia Pickle Bottom.

        It's not a sports car or even a sporty car, just a plush capable cruiser to take the kids to church in.
        Have you taken a corner in yours? This thing goes around a corner pretty flat. I'm actually shocked that it corners almost as flat as my 533i with H&Rs and Bilsteins, and ST adjustable sways. Except when its not going around a corner, its floating down the road comfortably.

        Cars are tools. You get the ones suited for the job you want them to do. If they are close, but not quite there, you mod them. Simple. You seem to be a bit fixated on stereotypes of what certain car owners should be like. And the description seems pretty dated. We could very easily make a similar series of ignorant statements of the awkward 80's where the only people who drove E30's were named Chet or Buffy and drove them to the same golf courses as W124 owners.

          You don't want them, they're boring. E30's need 16's anyway. Save the 15's for the E21s.

            50 sidewall > 45 sidewall

            I respectfully disagree with the need for 16s

                        Cheers. Photos at that angle work really well for what I call "Driving out of the screen™" sig pics. I couldn't help by do it to your photo.

                          16's! Extra Points if they're lightweight and somewhat uncommon!

                            Whoever said 15's don't work on an e30 just wasn't doing it right.

                              End of the day it's all personal preference.

                              I just find it hard to believe you'd take the SAME wheel in 15" over 16". Would you? Anyone?

                                I'd take Rs001s over Rs003s any day. Basically same wheel just different size.

                                I personally want euroweaves with 225s
