I am getting some 16" wheels from Zenetti, black with polished lip, the ones he's getting next month..

I can't help but think that they might suit this car more than my white one.

any opinions on that?

Are those jamex lows?

the ad on trademe claimed superlow 40mm, but 40mm is more then likely normal low i'd guess.

I wouldn't really want it much lower though, its a daily driver, so needs to be able to go.. anywhere.

easist upgrade for you is,

sell the e30.

buy my 750il.

never look back :P .

since the missus works for a bmw outlet,the few parts required over time would

pale in the background,while you enjoy the man sized car.

Nice, I've driven a 2001 750IL (mates car) handles well etc, plenty of power, his one is chipped and has no speed limiter etc, sadly they are too big for my garage, too long etc. my garage is short, E30 only just fits with 30cm to spare.

Even a 540i probably wouldn't fit, or it might.. just.

I like the old E30's, I could buy a late model car if I wanted, but at this stage i'm happy playing around with old cars.

Yeap, i know how awesome they are, also been in a Merc CLS55AMG and CL63AMG (as a passenger) those are nice cars too..

I could see myself owning a big car eventually.. once I get a decent house.

Finally have my 15" BBS Alloys on this car, now that I have attacked the hubs with a cold chisel and hammer, there were spacer rings stopping me putting these on.

Heres some pics with the BBS wheels + Jamex Springs.

Looks good man. I do like your white E30 more though :P

Hehe am glad you think that, the white one is better in almost everyway, but I don't use it as a daily driver :P

Overall this car is in better condition though, but at the end of the day its still an auto 320i

Who through? i was probably the person the OP is talking about saying pickup only, because ive found shipping on large lightweight parts to be expensive and people dont end up paying, so i only really ship dence parts
