its a round profile with what looks like 11 notches in it.

can anybody let me know if this is after market or bmw??

cheers jamie

thats what they look like

cheers jamie

hi people im interested in refurbing some 17's i have in gloss black.

has anybody done a good black finish on there wheels before and was it hard??

cheers jamie

hi ste,

the car looks awesome.

if you dont mind me asking what size wheels and tyres they are and what is the drop??

cheers jamie

a friend of mine had a 306 cabriolet painted with chrome paint, to be honest it doesnt look that impressive. he works in the spray shop where it was done and the amount of prep work needed for a good finish was a serious amount. the car apparently had to be painted in a perfect black first then the ...

this guy is a top bloke, sorted me out some alloys, dropped them off and even though he was busy with his huge trek around the country he still stood in the rain chatting about e30's and helping me out with some great advice!!! drop of was carmarthen to swindon (so not really local) and a great pric...

nice colour and looks clean, some clear indicators would freshen the look right up.

but that is just my opinion.

splx is cheap stuff really mate, you could probably buy another 10 or 12 inch sub off the bay for less than 30. like a pioneer or sony. these arent amazing but would definately be better than that one. and you can re use that box then.

i had a good rover coupe turbo, alot of fun.

never had one thing brake on it so not all are bad. history is important with them though.

awesome.

i love the look of it.

yea bought mine from euro car parts about 3 days ago, 18pound for them.

jamie

i have also been thinking of doing this, dont mean to hijack this thread but does anybody have an idea of the parts needed for this swap????

i know engine, i guess ecu?? but is there alot more to change over??

sorry again for jumping on your thread e30cherryred

jamie

welcome mate!!

thats great mate. was going to buy the book anyway as im new to e30's.

all sorted now though.

cheers jamie

60mm drop on 17's looks sweet, what profile tyre are they??

thats got me reconsidering keeping my 17's

if they are in bright red i'll have them off you, as long as the condition isnt to bad.
that way i wouldnt have to spray them imediately.

jamie

i want a set of these for my touring but wanted to know if these are easy to come across??

and does it matter 2or 4 door??

cheers jamie

i was a locksmith for 5 years and key cutting is really easy if they know what they are doing, definately go to a locksmiths but not one of these all in one van types as they are normally just franchises. but dont expect it to be cheap because when we cut on other peoples blanks we charged more inca...

cheers guys you have all been most helpful, think im going to go 60-60 on the original 15's.
