lidu278 3 Report post Posted April 10, 2016 Hi guys, My names Lidushan, my brother got me hooked on the e30 since he bought his first one a couple of years ago. Finally bit the bullet and got this amazing 1986 325i. Love it to bits. Looking to do a manual conversion and put 15inch spokes on it. Any advise would be great. Thank you (sorry the sun roof isn't up in the photo) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3318 Report post Posted April 10, 2016 Hi, welcome to the forum, Lidushan. lovely looking e30 you have there. I'll make a prediction: soon, e30's on Bottle Caps will become preferred, as they'll be rare. Everyone else will be running cross-spokes (basket-weaves). Those running bottle-caps will be seen as people of discerning taste. cheers! 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olaf 3318 Report post Posted April 12, 2016 oh mate, not advice as much as a tongue-in-cheek observation #8 ) if we get logical we are consigned to 14" boots in staying with the bottle-caps, which is a somewhat hair-shirt approach these days. Still, one should have a set in good nick with good rubber for 'sunday best', yeah? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
