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!
