just saved this '92 islandgrün touring. planning on doing a sleeper build, any wheel recommendations?
just picked up my new project and daily driver. it needs some love, starting with winter prep and electrical gremlins, but the long-term goal is to turn it into an understated sleeper.
the plan: glass-out respray in the original green, a custom interior, and a M50B30 stroker swap (2.5L block with 3.0L internals) for low-end torque on mountain roads (and probably more).
the wheel dilemma: the car came on 17" style 5s (BBS RC090). they look classic, but they're too dainty/common. i want a muscular 5-spoke or solid wheel that supports the E34's geometric lines without screaming for attention.
I want to avoid the usual ac schnitzer, parallels, throwing star which i feel are too common. i’m currently looking at two directions:
racing dynamics RGR (17"): Love the soft, organic radius and the deep central concave.
bmw style 26: fascinating star-mesh geometry and incredibly rare.
has anyone run low-offset 17" style 26s or racing dynamics on a touring? how is the presence in person? any other unpopular recommendations?
