BMWTouring 20 Report post Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) So the week before christmas i brought this off the side of the road, looked like an honest NZ New manual 320i.. Got bored of the stock appearance pretty quick so i added a genuine IS lip, Koni race series shocks all round, lowering springs and an Mtech I steering wheel. Just added yesterday 15x8 BBS RS style rims which im loving the look of.. Edited January 11, 2013 by BMWTouring Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers yep, mag and tyre. from your local BMW dealer.. the genuine ones are plastic so much better quality than reps and wont break the first time you catch it on a drive way etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e30ftw 410 Report post Posted January 12, 2013 Looks good, nice subtle changes. I think you need to drop the front a tad more to even it out though. And the dash matt is looking abit rough lol, But beats having a cracked dash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What size tyres did you go with? I was thinking of 205/55/15's for mine when I change the wheels, but it looks like you might have gone lower profile? cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMWTouring 20 Report post Posted January 12, 2013 yeah, the front is actually a tad lower than the rear just cant see it in the pics as it was on a slight hill, looks better in the flesh. the tyres are 195/50/15, probably a bit small but i didnt want the big sidewall look and still drives fine and the speedo is around 6km/h out at 100km/h so not too far off what it was before!
