E30 on BBS splitties

[Rav335uk]

On RM's .
What do you think?

[leeparkes]

Yep they would suit your cab just fine Rav,

[Rav335uk]

Been thinking that, but then I would have to sell the cab tech 2 kit and the wheels
And lower the car again

[harry_p]

The fronts look good because it's absurdy low, rears look too small though, I think they'd need to be 16s in those widths to pull it off.

[Nay]

Thats my style

As much as I like 'pinas, RS/RMs look better, and when they're that wide.....

Why would you have to sell the kit and wheels?

[blitz877]

that looks really nice that

[/// KAMI]

looks good

[Rav335uk]

Euro Look

[sl]

Looks rude.

Noob question, but what fitment is are E30 wheels? Specifically, an E30 320i?

[ross_jsy]

4x100.

same as old golfs

[Triple L]

RM012's those, they're such a lovely wheel despite being a poor mans RS, they look like 8's vs the standard 6.5" standard (6" with 0.5" lip) the standard ET is 33 on these, with the 2" lips added the ET will be around the ET17 mark... Lovely looking wheels as I said, but your sump will literally be dragging along the road with 15"s that looooow lol.

[harry_p]

That's the trouble with 15s on an e30, you either have to use balloon tyres, or risk taking the sump
off on catseyes otherwise you get a large arch gap.

I've yet to see a uk e30 properly pull off a set of wide 15in RS or RMs

[mrLEE30]

Yes remove the tech 2 side pods and leave the bumpers!!

16 inch RS splitties are the only way i reckon!!!

What width are your 16's? I'm guessing 8J ?

Mine are 7J but yours look wider.

I want to widen mine, that's why I'm asking. Yours look like a nice fit at the front.

Are the side profiles on your tires 45's or 50's ?

This is how BBS RS's are supposed to look. I dont like like ones with massive dishes where it ends up destrying the ride and handling.

[Kos]

keep the tech 2 with rm's and deck it


8J front with a 195/45 9J rear with 215/40 , thats what was on dips brown touring


job done

[mrLEE30]

they are standard 16x7 Et 25 with 205/50/16 tyres and dropped 40mm.

[da4x4turbo]

That's what I've got on mine:

Front:


Rear:


But yours look wider.

I got 205/40's all around though. Big Mistake !

[mc_hawkings24]

On RM's .
What do you think?

what colour is that, looks awesome plus removing the indicators clean it up nice

[mrLEE30]

They look the same as mine, in fact they look wider on your car!!

here they are on my sport...



and RM's style on the same car...



and for a bit of variety Schnitzers.....

and the eyebrows too?

[ImysE30]

If only i wasn't a pennyless loser

[jasso]

You dont have to remove the tech 2 look this

[ali-vert]

they definitely look right, if a little wide on the top pic

[Ollie_bwoii]

Rav I know under the front etc2 spoiler will be a facelift valance, but since yours was originally a chromie cabby does it still have a chromie rear valance, or has that been cut out and a facelift item welded on?

If it is a chromie rear valance, I would be getting rid of the tec2 kit and going back to chrome bumpers with BBS RM splits.

[Coops90]

Anyone got the specs of those RMs in the 1st post?

Im after a similar stance but was originally going for 16s as i thought 15s looked too small on low pro's but this may have changed my mind.

Looks mint.

Ollie, it has the prefacelift rear valance

You dont have to remove the tech 2 look at the link below

[Ollie_bwoii]

Looks pretty good, just never been a huge fan of tec2 kits, rather the standard bumpers.

[ImysE30]

I'm going Tech 2 with my cabby, also going very low and very wide
