Re: help with wheels

it is possible to go withother offsets, eg. like an offset of 35 but you will need 10mm spacers to pull the wheel away from the brakes and to stop them rubbing on the suspension, you will also need longer wheel bolts,

anyway that is how my team dynamics "Osaka"s are fitted and without any probs

If you take your glove box and assembly out there is a gromit around there somwhere which i think is easier than trying to go thru the drivers side, if you have to cut the gromit put a small x in it with a stanly blade just big enough for the power cable to go thru and when the cable is secured with...

Just a quick air intake question

Does any one know how big (in inches) the diameter of the air intake is on a 320i pre 1987 (the bit where you would attach a k&n) as i have just stumbled across a k&n at work (4 inch diameter) and the 320 is at home so i cant measure

Thanks

you might want to change the tyres to 215 40 17 or 205 45 17 as 205 40 17 are the wrong size for an E30

Another good Tyre which i highly recommend as i have had 2 sets in nearly 3 years is the "Vredestien Sportrac" in 215 40 17 very sticky in the wet and dry, or the Avon ZZ3, very good in the dry but not so much in the wet, but you cant go wrong with the sportrac and they wont cost a bomb
