Hi

I have had my mx5 since Oct and I love it but I'm still not keen on the wheels (see below). It came with a set of BBS wheels, though I'm not sure what model they are. The centre caps are missing and they look to be on slightly the wrong offset so I'm guessing they came from a BMW.

So I think I would like something new, question is what? I quite like the style but not the finish, help and pictures would be great.

Thanks



Opinions on these?

Those look like BMW E30 BBS wheels which are 15x7 et24. They are relatively popular upgrade due to their cheapness and being quite light for the size of wheel they are. They look good on a '5 thats sitting a bit lower.

I like the look of Rota Grid or RBR wheels.

Mines the same colour combo and it came fitted with "angel" wheels. I've just sold mine and am awaiting a set of yellow painted 5 spoke Enkei's, Hopefully this will lift the car whilst maintaing the handling balance as well.
