im thinking of buying new rims for my e30 can anyone post pics of good e30 rims NEW, like i could buy from the dealership. also im thinking of lowering my car just enough to close the wheel gap. how much would that cost. who makes the best or moderate suspension kits. what do you guys think looks good. i dont know shit when it comes to things like this. i just remember my brother lowered his car and it looked a million times better after.

to lower you will need new shocks/struts/springs. Look for wheels elsewhere besides the dealership.

Ya you have a few things to learn first.

You can get a set of lowering springs for $200ish. Then you shocks will fatigue within a year most likely. So add another $200ish. BBS look hot on E30's.

It all depends on how much you want to pay. And what your personal preferences are. Do you like slammed cut spring look, race car look, show car look, etc.

Look in the E30 forum. Find someones car that you like as ask them their mods if they aren't listed.
