    Lower it before you get new rims, it will look alot better IMO. Your car is really not bad looking, to tell you the truth i havent seen a bad looking e34 yet (aside form intentionally body kitted e34s). Yours is no exception.

    Default Dreadful?

    I think not. I agree that some rims look nice. But since when did these classic BMW rims become dreadful? I for one am not a fan of 18" plus rims with "rubber band" tires that make your car ride like a truck and destroy your suspension. If you drive it everyday it needs to be practical. Just my opinion.

    That's true.

    Lowering your car will make your stock rims look better. Running the stock ride height with 17" rims looks odd.

    so why did BMW set the front ends so obnoxiously high? they could have raised the strut tower if it was simply for more travel.

    Speaking of which, Jeff, is your Bronzit Beast lowered from "cherry picker" height yet?

    p.s. 525, don't worry, stock weaves aren't too bad...they also came stock on 94 and 95 850Ci's....none of these cars are at all "bad" lookinging, let alone "dreadful"...
