Do you ever go to the oaks meets anymore, I think ive meet you there a few years ago

I will try stoptech's re-bedding procedure today. I do go to Oaks once in a while; been there twice this summer and was planning to go today if it's not storming.

What chu all think of these wheels for the E30? keeping in mind the car is black.

they're 15x7.5 Ronal LS wheels wrapped in 195/55 Z1's. Local guy is selling them for $800. seems like an "ok" deal, but not Chu worthy.

I'm open to other 4x100 suggestions too...

Speaking of brake pads. Don't know if any of you guys can use these. They sent them to me for $75 a pair to test out, obviously I never got around to it.

Stoptech Street Performance Front and Rear - $75
Posi Quiet Ceramic Brake Pad Front and Rear - $75

Let me know if you want them.

Rick

Too big of a gap to the fender yo, you need something more aggressive. Offset is everything bro. 15"x10" with 215's all Stanced out would be the shiznit!

In all seriousness, those are nice looking wheels. Classic BMW look. I have no idea what the value of such wheels are, I only know that BMW/VW people will spend a fortune on the old school BBS wheels.

Ronals were actually though to be discontinued in the U.S, so prices went up like crazy. An then just a few months ago, a few people forund them to still distribute in the U.S, so prices for used ones went down like mad. Old School BBS RS still pull a premium though, like the SR20 2000
