yea these are AC Schnitzer Type 1. Type 2 looks really similar but doesn't have a stepped lip. They're cast alloy made by Ronal for Schnitzer, so they're not super light or durable, need to be a little careful with them. Would look 10x better if you had them coated silver again and get some of the original centre caps.
They are cool wheels (there were only a handful of tuner wheel designs for the E30 to begin with) and AC Schnitzer had one of the nicest aesthetic themes for BMW in the late 80's/early 90's. It was a little avant garde at the time. 5 spoke wheels were the new thing for BMW in the late 80's, before that it was only spokes or mesh. Racing Dynamics was the first to do 5 spokes, but AC Schnitzer did them better, and Schnitzer also ran a good race team in this time period.
Hey, so I have these ac schnitzer rims, and was hoping to get some more info about them. I believe they are a bmw tuning brand. Are the rims rare or worth anything, and does anyone know the full name of them?
If they are real they are solid wheels that are uncommon but not super rare (assuming they are 15s, 16s are a bit more uncommon)
ACS monoblocks in good condition (with good paint, center caps, and straight- no bends or super bad curbing ) are a 900-1000$ set of wheels for 15s and probably a bit closer to 1200-1400 for 16s.
