<E28> Borbet wheels



I want to thank everybody who gave me suggestions and advice during my
search for new wheels on my 1988 535.  I ended up getting new 15" Borbet
Type H from Tire Rack ($119 each).  I just got them mounted yesterday.
They really look great.  They have rounded spokes, which I think is
needed to complement the chiseled, square look of the E28 body.  They
look elegant, yet sporty.  And they look period-correct.  They don't
shout, "I stuffed huge new wheels under my old car!"

Now I have to sell off my two other sets of wheels -- original 290mm TRX
dinosaurs, and 15" 20-spokers from an early 525.  eBay here we come!
