Hi
This is my Touring i got at the weekend for a great price :cool:

Its a 318i wish it was a 2.5 but im only young :(

So far its got M3 Rep Motersport alloys, lowered 30mm all round and its got a Peco exhaust system.

HavenÔš't got a lot planed for it apart from changing the lights because i hate orange tints :cry:

Any advise is welcome :D

Cheers

Looks very nice!

A bit of a drop at the back and it'd be well sweet.

Nice car!

What size are the tyres, and whats the offset of the wheels?

If they are 205's, you won't have to roll the arches I doubt.

I had 17's and about an 80mm drop at the back and it didn't rub at all!

If you have 17's on an E30 you need to use 215/40/17 tyres to maintain speedo accuracy. 205's make the speedo inaccurate.
