German E36 Touring - The Phoenix

[K.rischan]

Update: Mounted the tires (205/45) on the 8x17 rims and testfitted them up front and on the rear, since my 9x17 for the rear of the car aren't refinished yet.




Looks good so far but there are some problems. The 8x17 would fit the rear but it'll rub. Thing is i wanted 9x17 for the rear...
The 8x17 were thought for the front but there they don't fit at all So i need to do the fenderwork i never wanted to do. Fuck.


P.S. I dunno why the tires are that chunky. I am not satisfied with that.
Aaaand the car looks pretty high on this pic. It's because it was jacked for like 2 hours and the springs needed to set themselves.

On another note (i can't stop raging about it): I WANT MY FUCKING WHEELS BACK, MISTER REFINISHER!

So,

the most awesome german touring drivers got together and installed Chris' suspension yesterday.

There's about 2,5cm thread left in the front and about 2 cm in the rear.

























And this is for Ox.
