Napier_E36 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2004 That is a very sweet looking E30, as sic said, subtle and not over done - thats how I like E30s... Grant, I am pretty sure they make those wheels in 16s - they are advanti "essen" - there was somthing about them in another thread - 318is's ride thread from memory - Ill have a look and post a link if i can find one (to the site with 16 inch essens that is, not the other thread!!)

E30_318i 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2004 Awesome. I'm now convinced E30s are the best looking cars/shape to come out of the 80s. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ja. Try Mag and Turbo Warehouse. They definately sell the Essen's which as Nap e36 said are made by Avanti. They are a closer copy of the Schnitzers than mine are. They are a bit deeper than my mags.

Guest Spargo Report post Posted August 17, 2004 Essen's don't come in 4 lug, are 17" and above, and are heavy. But then, I have it on good authority the ACS type 1 reps (as pictured) are around 21lbs per rims anyway! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
