Embracing the modern E30 M3 - Toronto red on new gold BBS Unlimited wheels!

BMW DIY Guy · 11-22-2023, 11:07 AM

All right yall, it's time to reveal the wheel changes on the Nimona the M2, and it's a BIG one!

I will be honest, my initial thoughts on the new G87 design were rough especially considering the huge departure from the F87 M2C which I owned and adored. My F87 looked like a panther, aggressive, angry, and awesome... the G87 looked.. confusing.

Then suddenly one day I got it: I saw a side by side of the G87 with the classic E30s M3, red on black and the sharp lines. Suddely I got it.. BMW (imho) is remaking and updating that E30 M3, and the G87 is a direct connection.

Because of that, only one thing made sense, gold BBS wheels on red, just like that E30. I got a chance to talk with BBS directly about their new Unlimited wheels, which are a game changer I feel for wheel design. New interchangeable hub system eliminates the need for spacers, allows wheels to move between different cars and gives one common set of hub bolt pattern. It's really impressive and I had to have them on the car.

I LOVE this new look, and the amazing folks at Bimtech PNW transferred the tires for me from the OEM wheels. Thank you to BBS Wheels USA for these fantastic wheels, and I LOVE the look!

Check it out!
