Wheel advice wanted

[shanek]

Since the majority here have very good taste, what do you think of these? These would be a last possible option. I have 2 cracked wheels and according to BBS it is most likely because of age. I may get them fixed but am worried that if they are starting to crack they may just crack again. These are cheap, $180 each, and they are local. I think they may look alright, have to see them in person first.

Sporty, but not too flashy. Decent lip. Kind of remind me of the style 68 3-series rims, but more open, a nicer finish... classier.

They have my vote!

I like them, try take a picture when you go see them, good price as well

Nice looking wheels! Just make sure they have the correct offset.

I like them.
Not too fussy and look fairly easy to clean.
Just make sure they have the right offset.

They are BMW specific so they come in 18mm for the 5 series and 41mm for the 3 series. The tire shop will have a set next week some time so I'll check them out then.

Cracked BBSs from "old age"? Were they RS wheels? Or E39 takeoffs? Where were the cracks? In the outer edge of the rims?

i like them...but they remind me of a mercedes amg wheel

My rims are RS, The ones in my sig pic. The cracks are on the inner lip.

So you mean the outer edge of the inside rim section? Like out near the tire bead? Pretty normal for RS if so. They used to replace them for free under warranty when that happened. Guess they ran out of stock or decided it was one policy that led to bankruptcy protection! I love the RS but for that reason alone I'm not interested in buying any anymore. Fine for a track wheel, but I don't expect my road wheels to deteriorate due to "old age" if not abused.
