how would these look on an E34??? opinions please!

[Five35]

About to pick up a new set of these, they are BBS RKII Machine Polished 18X8.5" wheels.. I havent seen a set of these on an E34 so i'm a little worried but they sure do look nice! I have a 1990 535i, black!

I don't like polished myself. Too flash. But the design is nice.

I'd be worried about the ride quality. The E34 predates the widespread use of 18" rims.

I have these on my e39 Wagon and love them. where did you find the polished finish ones? I need one! Let me know where you found them - I would owe you bigtime! - BTW - my friend had them on his e34 530 and they looked mean! - JT

you guys are too good with the photoshop tricks! Now if only one of you guys could superimpose Hillary Clintons head on George Bushes body in the whitehouse - maybe things could start to go a little better in this country these days! :) - C'mon just kidding guys...... - JT

I believe I have the exact same rims on my 525i.

The picture you posted is of the RK, which will look great but if you are getting the RK-II then they will look amazing. The RK-II is the 2 piece version. I saw them on a Z3 a while ago and in person I think they are one of the nicest rims I've ever seen. Excellent choice.
This is the RK-II

actually they are just the RK... i havent decided yet for sure, I just dont really know what other wheels to consider.. Of course theres the M-par or throwing stars but i want something a little unique...

[Five35]

He just emailed me and told me that those wheels were for his E30 M3.. there's no way that offset is right, is there?

[angrypancake]

they still will fit. ask him what the et is, if its within 13 to like 25 it will fit, so long as hub bore is 72.6mm (it should be) and they're 5x120.... so uh yeah... iirc e30 m3 wheels can go to e34. regular e30 was like 4x100 or something

I like them although they look too much like chrome which I am not a fan of (too G for me). On the other hand I would take those rims over my stock basketcrappers.

Polished finish looks badass if you haven't shadowlined your car, it goes really well with the window trim.

[jplacson]

Was never fond of polished stuff... too "bling" for me. But they look ok. As long as they're not shiny gold or anything... hahahahha!!!

Make sure to drop your front a bit more than the usual 1.5" drop... it'll make our rims look bigger.

Agreed. Only Floridians and Californians with more money than taste go for that stuff ;)
