Title: New wheels :):) **WITH PROPER PICS**
Post by: twistedblack69 on 10 February 2010, 19:39: EDIT: proper pics at the bottom of this post.

Well, firstly happily enough that the wheels turned up :( been scammed a couple times so was a bit worried, but luckily it turned out to be something that wasn't too good to be true :)

Unfortunately the weather has been too sh!t to clean the car, it's filthy at the moment lol. And they obviously look better in person, I need to get my mate to take some pics.

What are they - BBS's from a BMW?
Title: Re: New wheels :):)
Post by: twistedblack69 on 10 February 2010, 19:44: Cheers mate :) yea they're RZs off the E30 BMWs i think. OEM+ looks so much better than the gash I used to have on there
Title: Re: New wheels :):)
Post by: jmsheahan on 10 February 2010, 20:21: ah you've just solved one of the queries I posted up a few months ago - seem to be a fair few different RZ's!

How is the fit? Any rubbing? 45 profile tyres? Was debating about a set for mine if the offset causes no problems.

edit - seen your other post :grin:

Post by: shaolindan on 24 February 2010, 16:40: They look great mate. Although they aren't RA's makes the car look far more original than the previous set.
