Default BMW E30 question...

Anybody know of where to get some deep dish rims for a BMW E30? I've checked Ebay and haven't really found anything that's really caught my eye. Any suggestions?

sweet spam

is the e30 dropped? if so you can get real aggressive with the offset and end up with a nice dish

what styles of wheels are you into? the 4x100 pattern has tons of options

I'd also drop it before he puts deep wheels on it, to get max lippage your going to need to get real aggressive with your offset to max usable offset its going to need to sit low.

and nothing looks worse than a great set of wheels with huge lips and a 4x4 style gap like the e30s have stock
