UK BMW 320cd 'Family Car' (Pic heavy!)

[J.T.]

Here are some pics of my 'Family Car', I have a couple mk1 Golf projects and needed something I could wheel the lil man around in since my ex-wife took one of my cars off me. Still even if it is a family car it needs to sit right

Ths is how it looked when I got it:

I actually bought the wheels before I bought the car cos I liked them so much.

The wheels and suspension:

poor mobile pic


very bad curbing, must have been a woman driver!




Taken to PureKlas for a refurb, did an amazing job, need to see them upclose to see how good these look!




Jamex coilovers, suprising good ride quality!


Next came a few issues with tyre clearance etc and after buying a few sets of tyres I finally got it sitting right, the wheel specs are:

BBS RC 8.5 x 18 et13 with 215/35-18 Nankang NS2 tyres front
BBS RC 10 x 18 et25 with 225/40-18 Nankang NS2 tyres rear

And finally, this is what happened when I tried reversing up the drive for the first time after dropping it, the score marks in the pavement weren't there before:




No plans to do anything else to it as yet

Finally, I went to my dads factory to take some pics to enter into a Calendar competition and get the last pics of 2010 before the winter wheels go on, I got a couple good ones to choose from

Ugh I love it. Those are my favorite BBS wheels by far, the concave is :drool:

I'm gonna show my ignorance right now but what's the name of that wheel?
