PShop rims.

[FL318is]

Got a few other priorites but still "shopping" for rims . I PShopped these Panasports on crudely, but how do you think they look?

[dude8383]

won't look good IMO

BBS rims will look very period correct...

whats your budget?

[FL318is]

I guess I am somewhat flexible. Depends on the rim. Good news is I have to wait until this PT job pays the most current repair bill. Got a set of rims in mind?

one of the nicest rims you can get for an E30...

not that specific listing though, those are 5x120..


i would check out vwvortex.com and lookin the 4x100 classifieds. That forum always has a ton of nice stuff!!

The gold BBS are a good look! Thanks for the links.

My $.02, the Panasports look better on my Tii as they are more period correct.

BBS RM's are hard to find for a decent price in 4x100. The above posted link is for 5x120.

If you are not a brand snob or don't need to seek acceptance from others, this is a good alternative. Same look but easily half the price.

I was looking at those. Brand whatever. I saw a 2002 w/ panas, very sweet. These guys also have the pana look alikes.

[D. Clay]

I agree they are hot for 2002tii but not so much for and E30. I like BBS or BBS clones . Only folks like us know the difference. Put a BMW or BBS sticker on anything and 99% think they're all that!

[FL318is]

Just playin and was wanting opinions. I discoverd how to "paste" in PStudio so now I can have a visual.

[Alpine003]

I thought you didn't want to clean all those spokes?

Man you are so right on. I love the look of the mesh but I am pretty lazy. However I found a wheel cleaner at Auto Zone on that stuff works great. Its prob stripping the finish off, LOL!

[Alpine003]

Some of the higher end wheel cleaners that some dealerships use actually contain a form of acid in them and will eat into the finish if left on for a long time. But they clean german dust really well.

Castrol Super Clean is a good compromise between price and cleaning performance for me. PS21 is nice but at $20/bottle can get a bit expensive.

[asubimmer]

I love Panasports and I really want some for track rims....other priorities though :(

Man you are so right on. I love the look of the mesh but I am pretty lazy. However I found a wheel cleaner at Auto Zone on that stuff works great. Its prob stripping the finish off, LOL!What's it called? I use Meguiar's multi piece wheel wash which does a pretty good job of cleaning brake dust. Regardless, meshies are still a PITA to maintain.

[FL318is]

Its the one on the left. The one on the right does help but beware of which one you drink from.

Not my cup of tea, but this is a biased opinion since I'm a BBS fanboi :D
