Ride is firm(550Lb/in on the front,and 225Lb/in on the rear)
They are 7"wide with a 40mm offset and a 30mm wheel spacer to clear the 6 pot calipers.

No problems with tyres fouling on bodywork with that spring rates(IX kit not fitted yet,just poorly photoshopped atm)

May be moving up to some 7 1/2 x 18's with 45mm offset in the near future though. Again with 215/35 rubber

M3 reps, 17 inch, no drop in these pics, have dropped the car since this photo on 30/30 the rear has stayed the same! as in the pics just more stiff.

i am pants at up loading pic's but i own the touring in this topic now if you want to see my car (My pride and joy in the bodyshop) in the photo gallery section

Posted: **Wed Feb 17, 2010 10:52 pm**

no idea what these wheels are
what do we think?

Posted: **Wed Feb 17, 2010 10:58 pm**

liking the load of tourings but so far think it might be the borbets that i think work best for me, but will see what others have laters. what ever i get will then have to sell off the set of 5 bbs as can't store wheels anymore.

carry on more wheels on tourings please ideas needed

Posted: **Wed Feb 17, 2010 11:06 pm**

just attack the BBS's with some black paint

Posted: **Wed Feb 17, 2010 11:12 pm**

gareth did cross my mind as one set is mint and others are ok, thought of painting centers and polishing lip. Mine is Lachs silver with tec 2 kit dropped 40mm

My old touring on 16" Borbet As

Same one on 17" Azevs

My old 325 touring on unknown 15" dished wheels

My current touring on the same wheels

Current touring on 16" fondmetal alloys (no engine and standard springs at that stage hence the 4X4 look)

Those Hartges look great on the tourings. Mine are currently being refurbished and can't wait to see them fitted on the iS.
