The rounded look screams 80s, but maybe you want to go retro

edit: 10s in the back...

I think the Brock B2s would be a little better looking but still be completely euro

that is what I want something really european is gonna be hard to sell my AC Schnitzer because I really like them but change is good,

this is another choice

Damn those things look heavy as a mofo!

But looks-wise, I love the classic styling.

yeah they are about 24pounds. I think my ACS are about the same because they are 18's

wow, i'd rock those any day. i wanted to get the azev for my ride but it was hard getting my bolt pattern (required some serious cash). but i'd go with either one of those. possible the brocks for youse. what tires in the back? 295s?

are you sure I was looking at a bmw magazine from europe and this guy is running 17/10 in the back with some fendeer modification an 1"out

Well...You have a significant drop as I can see in your sig. They wont fit like that as it is. Also you have a 325, and not an m3 setup. So that wont work there as well. And you have no widebody going on so you would need very serious fender modification. Lastly, why do you need that much rubber? It wont be used with 325 power

I am planning to run 235 in the back is all about the lip!!
I love it!!
If I have to do something drastic like going wide body I will that is not a problem.
Just wait and see....

You are gonna put 235s on a 10? I ran 225s on my stock 7 1/2 inchers. I dont think you will able to get an air seal on such a wheel/tire combo. Recommended on 10 is 305...
But on a seperate note, after looking closely at your hood, I do believe that you would go widebody
