For me it’s 224s even on a non M E85/6. In standard colour though.
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.

The 107 all day long - there's something about that wheel that just looks right on the E85.

For me it looks better than the later 202 and for some reason I hate the 107's on an E86.

On an MRoadster I can't see past the 224's and think these are perfect on an E86.
Sapphire Black 23i
Previously 8xZ3's, 5xE85's, 2xE86's & 3xE89's

107s are the best looking wheels on the E85 (In my view)
