Bjorno's cab now on Z1 wheels

[Bjorno]

Saw this car on the internet, went to the owner and bought it!

It's a 318i with only 103.000Km (not sure how many miles it is)
Elektrik windows,antenna and roof
Black metallic with grey leather.
Windscreen and a new radio + I get the old radio (cd) to.
Car only drove in the summer so still looks like new.
16" wheels (don't like them)
And the original 14" BBS wheels

I'll drive it when the good weather starts than I have to sell my "IS" because it's a little bit to expansive.
The inssurance is just way to high.
Pitty do because I love driving the car but want to drive with a convertible so....

[Gouki]

wind deflector is always handy, not bad at all mate.

[Zayyan]

Very nice, bet you're thrilled with it

[Bjorno]

Dam right , now I just wish we where a couple months further!!

[Conan]

thats a cool looking garage. what you gonna do with the wheels. Put the 14's on or something new?

[Bjorno]

I'm still working on BBS RS wheels for the red one, but will probably come underneath the convertible.
BBS RS Front 8 en rear 8,5 with the hart in original BBS gold

[Conan]

that will do!!!!!!!!

[Bjorno]

Took the 16"wheels of and put on the original 14"BBS wheels.
And so he's sleeping in the garage waiting for the first sunshine.
With the rear window protector on it:



And some better interior pics

[eun]

thats some lovely leather u got there mate

[stevetigger]

Same as mine but LHD

[Bjorno]

Yes indeed

Wrote my car in today and had the luck that the sun was shining, so went to work and tryed to make the roof go well.
Found out that I have to chanche 2 pieces of the roof(boot) but for now I can open and close it with the help of my hands.

Then took a drive, cold but fun all the way!

Put an IS lip and still have to put the M-technik gearshift on.
And maybe tommorow I'll give it a good polish.

[Bjorno]

I've got a smale update, had to choose between these:





The M-tech is going in my cab, fit's best int the interior,
The Schnitzer is for my IS, fit's best with the racing dynamics wooden interior parts.

And maybe stupid but changed the steel reserve wheel with a original bbs wheel.



Now still waiting for the BBS RS wheels, the centers are ready so will have those this weekend. The rims are still in order.

[Bjorno]

Finally got my wheels.....enjoy the pics
Only have to mount them together.
















BBS RS 15inch 8 wide on the front and 8,5 on the rear. The hart in BBS Gold.[/img]

The rest of the wheels:








And put them on the car:

[jonnybwaa]

wow those wheels are absolutlely stunning!

[bmwe30mtech]

Lovely, i love metallic black cars, leather and convertables! Great mix. Those wheels are great, so much more tasteful than the ones that were on it. I must get some tasteful ones for mine soon lol.

[stevetigger]

Go get them tyres, we want more photo's!

[Bjorno]

I have the tires, but still have to put the wheels together so they wont leak.

Tires are Pirelli's 195-50 15, normal tyre because it's a daily and want to spare the wheels from the great bumpy roads we have here

[rare]

Those wheels are amazing. Cant wait for more pics.

[dreierc]

Nice interior and like the new wheels! But 195/50 all round might be a little bit small, I'd rather go with 205/50 and 215/50, if you remember that 205/55 is still the stock size 195/50 is going to be not only a little bit thinner but also a lot smaller in diameter, and definitely NOT helping with sparing your fine rims.. I kind of doubt that you can put those on such wide rims, or even if you can it will look a bit funny.

But indeed PROPS for the wheels! Making something similar myself at the moment but with 0,5" wider rears. Love BBS RS rims.

P.S. As a final touch you could also polish the center hexagons.

[Bjorno]

I'll see wat the 195/50 will do, normally they fitt like german style.
But yes I know it's dangerous for the outer rims, But I will see what they do.

I didn't go wider because normally they will fit just in the car, with 0,5 wider they will defently come out.

Ow and about the centers, they will be polished but didn't had the time yet .

But good luck with yours!

[nav786]

the wheels are lovely mate, stunning. but 195 is too low, i think 205 is much better on the rears as its atill a good stretch. i had 215 on 9" wheel and it looked the business

[Simon13]

i wish i had never sold my bbs rs now!

[jimmybmw]

netjes hoor kerel.

ziet er heeeeel erg dik uit. trouwens, kasjes zullen wat gerold mogen worden he.



mocht je je 'is' weg doen. wil je me dan een seintje geven?


groeten.

[Coldaccord]

is that a carbon fiber trunklid on the red one?

get that stretched look going on they are awesome rims mate

[Bjorno]

I wish but no, the original was in bad shape with the wing on it, so I put this one till I find a better one or when I respray here.
So it's just a sprayed black one now .

[hammoj28]

Love those wheels and the car! Cant wait to see them with tires! Suit that car very well.

[Bjorno]

Well the wheels are underneath the car and now the zone is back (thank god...or the zoneteam) here some pics after a good polish of the car:













And yes I know I have to lower the car , will start with an M-tech suspension I think and then we will see. Don't want to go to low cause it's a daily an still want to drive here with 3 passengers.

[rare]

Now that is dope Will look the bollocks more so when its lowered. Im jelous, probably the best wheel for the E30.

agreed

but i personally would slam it cos then it gives me an excuse to not carry to many women at once and just choose the fit ones

[Bjorno]

Good point

[eun]

bjorno i am looking at these wheels for the summer

do you mind telling me (by pm if preferred) what sort of price you paid and what i should be looking at?

cheers dude

[Geeman]

Rims are wicked... but like you say, a drop is a definite must!

Looks cool.
