E30320i

Yeah im still figuring how im going to tackle that, maybe get coilover sleeves in the front. or try pick up a set of coilovers 2nd hand from Nz if there are any for e30s haha. Or a set of those JOM coilovers from Ebay but still a bit hasty about them not 100% sure if theyll be alright, they would only be for street use, so i dont see the huge problem with getting them its not like im racing

just Cobra superlows

Finally got my Tyres on. . . . Here are some pictures I am currently running 205/45/r16s on a 9inch rim with a offset on 15+ pretty happy overall, but needs a bit more low at the front. I can only achieve this with rolling the guards which i will do soon It has 5mm spacers all round to clear the front struts. Any questions or advice, go for it lol

http://www.vorshlag.com/product_info.php?c...products_id=120 I found these, which seem to be the best, BUT, all the wheel nuts the use with them are endless where as the wheel nuts i got with mine are not? Do you guys think this will still work? Cheers

yeah thats what i was thinking, something along the line of that thread locker. It would be better to do it properly and see if it is actually legal, as a half ass job could end up being potentially dangerous maybe? and the centre caps, i didnt really like them so probably wont use them really a. Ill do some more research and see if its safe and legal Cheers guys, Any questions or advice. ask away

Hi guys Just bought some new wheels and was planning on using the new wheel nuts that came free with the wheels to change the Lug bolts on my BMW E30 into wheel nuts. Was thinking that you could buy 16 bolts the same diameter and length and make them permanently stay in the hub? Any Ideas? Was Just wondering if anyone has done this on here?

Yeah me to lol, getting tyres some time next week

Yeah I think ill have to get Spacers at the front to clear the struts, about 5mm. but yeah definitely need to guard roll I dont know much about guard rolling, is it a big process lol?

Cheers man, I bought them 2nd hand off a guy on here actually. Lorrell lowering springs. they ride so much better than my standard ones

Thanks man, You mean just same colour as the car? i had that in mind yeah

Its not much haha but this is my E30. I have had a plan for it for a couple of months now and its finally starting to come together Things i have done to it since i have owned it New Full Exhaust New 4.10 Diff New K&N Air Filter New Fuel Filter New Oil Filter New Fuel Pump New Front Control Arms New Master Clutch Cylinder IS Lip Bought a set of Lowering Springs New 16x9 BBS RS reps I am currently in the process of buying tyres for them, 205/45s all round. So will upload pictures when this happens. Then i will see how much lower i need to go to get it sitting nice, I am still deciding whether i will get adjusties for it yet But may even turn to these Coilover Sleeves for 400 dollars If anyone has any Questions or comments id be happy to help

Looking for a set of 2nd Hand or New Coilovers for a E30. Cheers

I have Bought wheels for my Car, Finally but i have been doing a bit of research on Coil overs and these are the cheap option or i will eventually save up for decent Coilovers. BUT. I can get Coilovers Called TA Technix, similar to JOM coilovers for around $550 landed, off Ebay. Coilovers <--------------------- Thoughts? They had a couple good reviews but i guess you pay for what you get, i am only looking for the ride height really as it isnt a race car haha

what does it matter? im not really financially prepared to pay $3000 for genuine BBS Rs wheels that are nearly worth more than the car itself lol. If they don't break on me whilst driving my car then i am happy and they look the same as RS wheels anyway?

Yeah i have seen Esm002s on Ebay, They look pretty good actually. is that your car? and what tyre are you running?, quite alot of stretch haha looks good Oh and what Centre Bore are your wheels? i believe an E30 centre bore is around 53? i think lol and the wheels i am looking at are 73.1 will this be a problem? if anyone knows

Was just asking all the Gurus out there if they know of anywhere I could buy these wheels in different Sizes as i don't think i could run 16x9s at the front without running into problems so was looking to have 8s on the front. I did ask them if they had 8s but they didnt. But Opinions would be helpful and the +20 offset might be a problem for the 9s maybe? here are the wheels -----> WHEELS

ahh what?

Yeah, its what im looking for at the moment so think ill go with those a

Which isnt to bad really?

Yeah i signed up there a while ago, quite good yeah. Those Coilovers had quite a good Review considering the Price, looks like i may buy some. not sure about the Exchange rate though :/

Here is a good thread on JOM Coilovers for E30s, Seems pretty good -----> http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=220171

15x8 et+12 15x9 et+3

$400 coilovers? link me them lol

Yeah that is true, it does sit okay at the back with minor camber but yeah will see what its like with wheels on it

What did you get pink sticker for though, cut springs? and yeah i know what you mean. coil overs give you so much more options for ride height lol in comparison to shocks/springs.
