Someone has to say it so I will try diplomatically... REAR = Behind you RARE = Not a lot around, very few.... Don't you go to uni too?? When I was there, if you spelt things incorrectly or got the wrong context you automatically got a marking downgrade. you get the jst of it

Cam - it was my understanding the +15 et rubbed on guards quite badly. Perhaps the race series guys could correct me here??????

No indication on pricing yet - but expect them to be as sharp as our pricing normally is

Thanks for the offer Graham - very kind of you Unfortunately the mold is almost ready to go so all the tooling has been done!

haha - not practical at all!! painting is approx $5 overseas whereas it is almost $100 per wheel here!!We will probably end up bringing in a couple of colours I think.

Hi Ray What are you looking for in a tyre? Is performance your biggest prerequisite? Or Longevity? etc If you want a good all round tyre the Bridgestone RE001 Adrenaline is a very good option. The other tyre I would consider is the new Goodyear Excellence. Both options are class leading tyres cheers Jono

Hi everyone We are looking at getting some 15x7 Basketweaves made. they will be 4x100 and probably a 20ET. I am wondering what everyone's thoughts are on colours and what colours you would like to see available. The wheels are primarily for the E30 race class, but will be available to anyone. Please do not post any comments about different sizes or widths, I am only interested in genuine feedback. EDIT: have added offset question too. Cheers Jono

I have been doing exactly the same thing 3 series. I too am amazed that people condone this sort of behaviour. I am doubly surprised that a moderator and an admin person have even made comments semi condoning it. I am a keen cyclist as well and have raced MTB nationally in the past, but I know that a 30kg pice of metal with 2 tyres is way different to a 1000kg hunk with 4 wheels! Henry - good on ya for wanting to put your car through it's paces but please keep it on the track!

HB Mate - you need to pop in for a coffee!! We all miss your smiling face!

Just make sure you get 6 cylinder springs and not 4 cylinder. The TM auction says that they fit a BF mazda as well which would indicate to me that they are 4 cylinder springs.

make sure you lie them flat and it is probably best to try and keep some air in them if they atre on the rims. Alternatively you could just take all the air out but you may have to get them rebalanced if and when you put them back on the car.

Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. I was referring to tyres on the same axle cheers.

nice work Atta, looks the shizz!!!

Happy Birthday young fella!

Has anyone else here NOT experienced the recession? We are on track for a record month and have almost doubled last years July sales? On top of that we are up about 20% in sales for the calendar year compared to last year. Last year was a pretty good year for us as well, but this year has just taken off........

There are also new WOF laws in force that state the tyres MUST have the same speed rating and a Load Index of +/-2. As stated earlier, as long as you have matching pairs of directional or asymmetric tyres on the same axle you should be fine.

nice work Atta...... now get back to it!! Put those 17's on!!

IMO it looks a bit too ricey and bolt on. The rear doesn't look flush enough. Front looks ok tho

Everyone has beaten me to the punch. As already mention 235/45/17 and 255/40/17 are the correct sizes. Will price up some options and get back to you!

Nathan - sorry to hear that the don't fit properly but I DID say to you to take the car in to our shop to trial fit them first. Hopefully you can get it sorted.

Shirley? I thought his name was Simon............. or is that his alter ego????????

That "black stuff" is brake dust and there really is no way to get it off unfortunately. It is corrosive and actually eats into the chrome. I bet it has left little pit marks in the chrome. All you can really do is minimise its appearance now with a lot of elbow grease. Autosol tends to give the best results.

The Borbets have left the building! Shoud be in Petone 2moro morning! Say you are from Bimmersport, if they look at you blankly get them to call me. It pay pay to take your car in just to check brake clearance etc.

2 sets will be there tomorrow

Jeez John! Could you get any closer to the edge of the breakwater? You can get some great photos down by the boat club!
