    Started with an '89 325i Touring in Malachitgrun and threw on some Alpina Kopis.

    The Kopi's turned out to be a crap wheel, they bend if they got within 10 feet of a pothole. But decided to add some curbage to make sure we really didn't want them

    Then got a set of ASA AR1 size 17"

    Now the newest addition - entire swap only cost $300

    When you said Boss... I was expecting to see a 302 in there.

    Not that I'm disappointed... I love the E30 Touring and the car looks great. Love the wheels.

    Yeah... although the early ones now meet the 25-year rule.

    Yep, looks great. It's the right color, too.

    Love the E30 touring. Counting the days until the 89s are on the 25 yr. list.

    Looks Rover-ish from the A-pillar back, but I'd take one.
