    If you're set on those 3, the first ones look the best. If used wheels are an option, I'd poke around on the classified on bimmerforums. I've had luck finding good deals on wheels there.

      The esm's are the bet looking and quality out of those wheels. But poking around you can find some great deals. Style 5's can be found if you look hard for between $200 and $800. They're $600ish a piece new. But I saw a guy snag a set of Style 19's in Chicago for $80 and they were in good shape. I'm sad I didn't see them:(

              i run 18's on mine and i wish i had 17's if you get low 18's will rub alot my fenders are as streched, pulled and rolled as far as they can go and they rub a fair amount if i had 17's i could get a real size tire under my car and drop it probably another 1 and a 1/4 17" tires are also way cheaper but with that said if you want some huge brakes 18's are the only way to go

                    want to. the hood has never matched in color and it looks like who ever painted it had a lot of water in their compressor. Also in one spot looks like someone slammed it with something under it and it has a crease in it. its kinda in rough shape lol.

                              IMO, those Bremmers are the best looking of the wheels you've linked.

                              Only some e36s can pull of 18s. You need the right height/tire size combo, otherwise they'll end up looking like a donk-mobile. The 18s that came with my last e36 M3 made it look absolutely horrific, but the same wheels in 17" looked gorgeous on a bimmerfest member's car.

                                    they are so nice. the guy was cool too. Met him on bimmerforums. he just had the clear stripped and re cleared and he is going to clean and polish them for me before he sends them. tires are brand new only 500 miles on them. got them for 700 + shipping

                                      Wow, that seems like at amazing deal, even without the tires.
