What Wheels ?

[KyleK 1]

Hi, I have recently purchased this E46 320i.

It came with these rims which I was told were BMW 5 series rims.

Now I am not sure where it actually came from, so I was wondering if anyone knew where they are actually from

or what they are ?

I am thinking of getting them painted (not black !) or selling them and getting new ones.

Also the car is now sitting on stock springs. In the photo they are sitting on compressed springs.

They didn't have 100mm clearance so i wanted it with stock springs fitted,

I have the lowering springs in the garage, and i was wondering if its possible for a spring to be de-compressed ??

I'd like to lower it but dont want it to be under 100mm clearance.

Thanks guys !!

e46s always go low on compressed springs. lowering springs is your only bet but they will be pretty close on the 100mm mark too

Thanks It seems like they are style 48s. I'm considering getting them powder coated.

I do like it lowered but i just want it to have 100mm clearance so i don't need a cert. And the springs i have go lower than 100mm.. hmm

Standard motorsport springs will drop it a decent amount (enough to notice and improve the look) without making it undriveable or illegal.
