    Default 17 inch wheel options

    im sure this has been beaten to death but lets see some of your fave 17 inch wheels besides the style 5s. I cant afford them right now so im looking at other options. I like the ASA AR1 but the more i see them on peoples cars I think they look kinda cheap. Id like throwing stars but theyre kinda pricey too.

    Definitely one of my favorite wheels on the E34. I was looking for an OEM set for a long time, but never had any luck. Did you paint the front bumper, or is that a p-shop?

    No offense if it's yours, but... those are DEFINITELY the wrong wheels for that 3.0

    I have no problem with agressive, but with a classic like that, you gotta stay period-correct. Some nice BBS would do the trick, no need to cheap out with aftermarket stuff that didn't even exist when those cars were running around. :dunno

    If you can afford it, buy the classic Alpina wheels.
    Timeless nice.
