  1. hey

    i had a look in my boot in the weekend and was expecting to see a spear tyre but instead i found a tyre repair kit...

    has anyone used the repair kit before coz it looks pretty complicated to me and i don't have any instructions i can understand and plus i think im missing a tube off it from what i can understand.

    or is it just easier to replace it with a spare tyre

    Hi Andy

    pop in and see us and we can run through it with you. Unfortunately we are closed tomorrow because it is Waitangi Day

    Cheers

    The Best looking e30 wheels are up for sale.

    Need some stock wheels, for the meantime.

    Any one got some.

    Matt - you might want to put the size, offset and pcd on there. I am pretty sure they wil be 18x7.5 45et and a 4x100/114.3 multifit. If they are 45 et they will fit most FWD 4 stud vehicles. I only know this because we sold HUNDREDS of them (runs and hides :ph34r: ).


  3. We also have the option of the 20et offset but the sticking point is the quantities that you have to get made. It really is quite hard sometimes making the decisions like offset, colour etc. It is almost uneconomic for us to get both offsets made. if tis first shipment ( when it gets here) does sell really well we may investigate getting both offsets.


  4. Ok so I thought I better put an update on what is happening with these:

    BAD NEWS I am afraid :(

    I don't know the specifics because trying to talk to people who's 2nd language is English can prove very frustrating. It seems that they either told porkies about them being ready or they were sold to someone else overseas.

    Anyway, the upshot of this is that they are remaking them again for us at the end of February. Chinese New Year starts next week and goes for 3 weeks so basically evrything comes to a halt. It looks like we should have them by the end of March.

    It is super frustrating for us because now by the time receive the wheels the race season is over.

    On a positive note we will probably get some 17's made at the same time and may possibly increase the number of 15's coming. :)


  5. Hi Jib

    Unfortunately I have no info at all at the moment. If you reread my original post you will see that I was just trying to gauge if there would be any interest in the wheel :) .

    One of our factory's sent us an email asking if we thought if there may a demand for them, hence my reason for the original post.


  6. One of the owners is at the factory now - primarily to chase up the 15" basketweaves.

    I have sent him an email reminding him about the 17's. The factory was only talking about making them, I am not sure whether they decided to go ahead with it or not. I should have more info in the next few days.

    cheers


  7. Haha, I have been trying to keep that site secret for a long time! We use it quite a lot as the pictures are far easier to show someone than try and explain it verbally.

    Just remember that the measurements are taken to the inside of the bead on the wheel NOT the outside so you will need to add an extra 10mm either side if you want them measurements to the outside of the wheel. :)


  8. Welcome to the site, I am sure you will learn heaps on here. I am no mechanical expert but have you checked the air intake pipe for cracks etc, it seems to be a common problem. Perhaps you could also put in your profile where you are from so we can send you to the nearest expert.

    BTW Glenn should be along shortly - he is our resident guru on BMW's :)

    EDIT: He beat me to it
