It will be the tyres that are driving the price up. I assume your car is on 245/40/18's at the moment. The tyres that you need will be 245/30/20 and 275/25/20. The rear tyre on its own will be up around the $1000 mark!

will not suit 5 or 7 series - offset is incorrect.
-
these will not fit both 3 series and 5 series, it will be one or the other. If they also fit Holden and Ford, they will not fit 5 series. you may want to edit your ad on TM. cheers

GO and TALK to the professionals . While some of the opinions on here seem relevant and correct, alot of it stems from personal experience. I find it quite interesting that when people want advice on issues they will listen to just about anybody except the people who actually do it for a living or won't or can't be bothered talking to them. I am sure Glenn comes across this quite a lot as well. Not picking at you Hybrid but words like 'umbrella effect'?, and actually "recommending getting guards rolled"? If you get the correct offset and width you will not need guards rolled. BTW all BMW guards are double skinned and have silicone in them to prevent water getting in, pooling and ultimately causing rust issues. I really could go on for a lot longer but really can't be bothered and am sick of banging my head against a wall at some of the 'advice' I see given out on this forum.

E30 standard BBS mags (basket waevers) - Wanted

buy a set of the race class wheels! -
If the $210 includes gst, fitting and balancing it is a sharp deal. By the time we courier the tyres to you and you pay someone to fit and balance them you won't save much money. Let me know how you get on,cheers
-
what size wheel are you looking at? I have 18" M6 reps in stock.
-
It all depends on the width of the wheel. we have put plenty of 18x9 @ +45 on E46's and have never had any problems.
-
said it before and will say it again.... check the air intake pipe for cracks
-
they will have to be here and MR2A'd by 31st December this year. The New emission standards kick in 1st January 2009, so you better get your 'A' into 'G' as they will only be good for track cars if brought in next year.

He is telling you porkies re Roadstone. Roadstone is a rebranded Nexen and from the same factory. We have had a lot of success with Nexen, a great all round mid-range tyre. The people that import Dunlop also import Roadstone, that is the only connection. If you like I will see what I can do for you when I am at work tomorrow cheers Johno ps where are you from?

there are lots of abstract and logic puzzles in the initial exam so make sure you practice heaps of those - the kind that says what comes next if that makes any sense (you know black square black circle white square ... what comes next?) You also don't get a lot of time to do the initial exam and they mix up the questions so that there are some easy ones towards the end of the exam, the trick is to go through and try them, if you don't get it immediately go to the next and then come back to it. A good mate of mine found this out the hard way and failed his first go because he ran out of time. The fitness is pretty important too, your local recruiter should be able to give you the time that you need to run, how many push ups you need to achieve etc. A big thing they look at is attitude - they like you to do as many push ups and sit ups as you can rather than just the minimum needed to qualify. The actual college is all about study, my mate had little time to do anything else. Hope that helps and gives you a few pointers - my mate reckons it was the best thing he has done!

aka "The Tron" or "City of the Future" I spent 5 years of my life down there working and studying. Well.... not so much studying.........

Hi Ray I am sure I mentioned this earlier in the thread $500 a set incl GST or buy 2 sets and pay $450 incl GST per set. This is a Bimmersport only price and wil not be offered to Joe Public. cheers Johno
-
14 sets left NEW PICS up now
-
IN STOCK NOW. Finish is plain silver rather than the dark hyper silver as shown in photo, should have photos up tomorrow
-
43et should sit inside ther guards nicely. a 35ET on an 8.5 rim will rub on the rear guards on an e36. Pm if you would like some tyre pricing, 225/40/18 should be the size tyre you are looking for. cheers Johno
-
It depends on whether your rims are different widths. If they are the same all round you should run 235/40R18's. If they are different widths run 235/40 and 265/35r18 tyres as suggested by the other guys. We have a store in chch, flick me a PM and I will be able to quote you some prices. cheers Johno

I removed the rear mufflers on the 735i and replaced them with straight pipes. It gave it a nice V8 burble. Not too loud but just noticeable enough for people to turn their heads and look. The people on the ANZAC day cruise may remember.
-
These wheels are FINALLY on the water, should be here in the next couple of weeks. Weight is 8kg per wheel,cheers
-
I did the same with a set of 17" wheels, had no interest then offered them at $450 and not one bite. Relisted them at $1 reserve and got $500 for them - go figure!
-
that guy is a FREAK!!! props to him, I also noticed the website and have added it to my favourites so will watch with interest
-
Help me decide which wheels to put on my ///M Touring!
zenetti replied to Fai+H777's topic in Wheels & Tyres
I don't want to burst your bubble but those tyres look very very old, I wouldn't be surprised if they are very noisy. And the wheels are pretty seriously curbed which will probably be quite big money to fix. Oh well......... you win some you lose some. -
Man you must do some hard driving if you think Eagle F1's wear out to quickly! That other tyre is due to arrive here at some stage but not in the next few months unfortunately. The only other tyre I could think of is the Dunlop Sport 01 which is also assymetric.
