They are genuine BMW RC061/062 in 8x18 and 9x18:

That would be my choice when getting new ones. I like m-parallels a bit more but "everyone" has those so..

How do wider tires at the rear affect the handling? The car feels a tad understeery with stock tire measures.

i think they look good

Very nice wheels, but most certainly a pain in the asss to keep clean. The old stock basketweaves that came with my car were a struggle. OEM dusty pads didn't help either.

I like them.
A lot.

I can't really disagree :D

Wokke, who cares if they are a pain in the ass to clean, the E31 is a pain in the ass anyway!

Those rims are amazing, I really like them. Makes me wonder if I made the right choice with my M-Parrallels.

I like the staggered (also pain in the ass) wheels on E31. Makes the car look like the monster that it is.

Cheers

very nice wheels sir

Always liked them but cleaning IS a pain..........no such issues with the MK's......

I don't know if the E31 as such is a PITA, but whenever I see the spare parts prices I'm glad that I once decided to get myself an E24-M635 instead of an E31.

I have a friend in Australia whom I send spare once in a while since they are sometimes cheaper than in the US. Just today I ordered a cable set for the headlight and couldn't believe the price I saw. :eek:

Back to the rim: I do have a set with nogaro silver centers and those are easier to keep clean because you just don't see the brake dust as much as on the silver ones. :)
