E36 - My 1st BMW

[Mexican]

Yes, that looks way better! I actually love the Alpina caps... dunno why but they look spot on and fitting

Thanx man.
The alpina caps were a bit of a joke. You know me. Tryin to provoke the BMW purists. Ha ha. But yeah I really like them.

damnnnn...you did it again

Lol. Thanx man. Much appreciated.

As much as I loved it on the RSs I completely understand why you're selling them. I didn't think I'd like the Z3 wheels on it, but they work so well. I don't think you can make this car look bad haha.

Me and Ben are going to have to head over your way soon.

Thanx man.
I was unsure at 1st but the moment I got them on I knew tey would work. The dish in insane and just the oem-ness makes them work.

Yeah man you guys should defo head over. Not even far. I might hit up that home grown too.

silver side looks so much better. lol, will paint the other 2 silver i think.

[l3xxd]

I kinda like the new wheels better than I thought I would, but I agree on the gray as well. Maybe something with pearl/metallic would look better. I swear your car works with any wheels at all!

[X5X]

Gun metal metallic

[Dr.AK]

Yeah, the grey really doesn't work.

For these wheels... I dunno, I feel as if they need something heavily metallic for paint.

[Spirit]

ummmmm not sure on the wheels

17" BBS RSs for Sale! by Mexicanfab, on Flickr

dont like the grey against my car, looks blue. :-(

so will repaint next week.

[Mexican]

yeah. thats the plan. should be fun.

the height has come up almost 10mm because of the tyre size change from 195s to 205s. :-(

cant bring it down until my tracking is done as my fronts are super crooked. lol

Ha ha, 1" wider dishes would make them 10s et-4. ha ha

[Dr.AK]

Do you really think i would buy them shitty 7.5 high et fronts? lol

The Mex doesn't disappoint, I approve of this

Can't wait to see your car... you're going to the SW UK meet on the 5th right?

[cheeky dog]

cant wait for new wheels....

[X5X]

Widen the rear dish another inch and make them 10s

[Mexican]

this is sick...very very sick ....absolutly sick don't know what car impressed me lately as he did this car......
now, what suspension do you have?

Wow man, thank you so much!
Suspension is the Broadway Static coils which are amazing! check on the top of the Stance Showroom page!

Are you at least going with 9x17s all around with the Z3 wheels? Only way to really pull them off, imho. The staggered setup looks relly weird with the fronts having no dish at all and the rears having a very deep dish.

Do you really think i would buy them shitty 7.5 high et fronts? lol

I think I have read somewhere that Mex bought 4 rears ! Success !
