    I have to wait until it's out of my friend's garage, I don;'t think his family would appreciate my car on blocks for a long time.. I ultimately wanna get some Borbet Type As, even if I can only find reps.. lol

    If you have a build thread let us know
    I will soon, just gonna try and get it running smoothly behind the scenes first.

    I'm more of a web-code/graphic designer but I will try my best. Hopefully I get my camera fixed soon..

    Since I should probably show a better looking car...here is my daily, photo creds aren't mine though.

    The wheels look like ASA AR1s to me.

    Looks like it'll be a fun project.
    I do remember seeing the words ASA and "Revolution" on them, are they OEM BMW wheels or was the centercap thrown in?

    They are way to big for my tastes, I would prefer 15"s, the 17"s make the car look too much like a donk to me.

    New Guy with plans ('83 528e)

    Hey Guys, new to S/W, not new to car forums.

    I'm a 20 y/o graphic designer living in the Pittsburgh Area, daily a 4g GT eclipse, and I just picked up a 528e the other day, and as much as I desperately want to throw it's nose into the ground on some coilovers, I currently have to get it running first, just posting this as an introduction, will probably be on here a lot more trying to learn as much as I can.

    Besides the rough idle that my BMW has, I had a question about fitting wheels w/o stretching tires. I bought my BMW and it came with 17" BMW Wheels, I don't have many pics currently but I have this one that shows what I mean. The car has not be lowered yet and I still tend to rub in the rear right wheel well. Is my only option rolling the fender? Would rather spend the money to get it running smoothly then new wheels and tires.




    Also if any Bimmer guys can identify these wheels for me, that would be awesome.



    Look forward to learning a lot, thanks!
