option 2 or 3. i'd probably go with option 2 as they look very good on e34's. just not sure of the quality of option 3.

I like the ACS replicas (they are replicas , right?), it just gives the 5 that sporty look :eek:

yep, they are replicas... Anyone have a pic of an e34 with the first or second option? I've seen a few with ACS type III's before...

option 3, although any of the three will look good imo

What is the purpose of going staggered? What's the difference besides look?

Most times going to staggered increases understeer. The only reason most people do it is for looks. It will reduce your 60' time if you drag race (which most don't.) And if you go staggered, then you can't rotate your tires. Running staggered sizes is usually a case of "form over function," unless you REALLY need the extra tire width to put the power down.
That said, both my 5er's have staggered setups right now, but soon the e34 will not.

Ah i c, thanks for the info... I prolly wouldnt go staggered then... Seems like a waste of money... Does anyone have a pic of an e34 with the Rondell Radial 15 spoke's or a similar wheel on them? I think these are catchy looking...
BTW: are rondell's good quality?

Click my sig for pics of my E34 w/ the Rondell 58s (second wheel).
Rondells appear to be sturdy. One of mine took a hell of a whack from a pothole and escaped w/ a fairly small bend.

I have to agree with ACBimmer. Those Rondell 58's are just to sexy on your car. Go with those.

I vote for the ACS type 3. Mainly bc we have the exact same looking car. :D
I will post pics of one without lowering and ACS T3 when I can find it.
