the car is now on 18x8.5+40(+25 with spacer to clear coils) front and 18x9+40. OG 2001 build date e36 fitment TE37's.

they were just thrown on the car for now. but refinishing them in a less obnoxious color and actually using the stickers on the wheels.

current plans are to raise the car a little and run a square 255 setup to fill the fenders. the current 225 stretch looks stupid on the te's.

i will be getting a stud conversion again and some lugnuts soon as well

DOPE! what wheels?

not sure i want something track looking 1 piece bt its hard to find aggressive sizing. ihad thought of varrstoens but i am always afraid to pull the trigger since they are reps

Are you gonna stay with 17s or go different sizes?

17s still just wider

so I have not had many updates in a while. so we are going to play catch up. I lowered my car more to the point i lost the fuel filter cover. bent the cross member behind the oil pan broke the rail for the gate at work. then last Saturday i was on the way to my friends to go bar hopping a small rock got stuck and broke my fuel filter and the valve in front of it. I was leaking fuel everywhere, lets just say it ruined my night. I have been so busy at work i didn't have time to work on my car and it was down for a week

While the car was down i decided to fix the loose ends and do some much needed maintenance.

changed the fuel filter

then I replaced this valve because it was causing a nasty gas leak.

I also changed my transmission mounts in favor of something stiffer as my stock ones were shot. so I went with the UUC red ones with enforcer cups. i was scared they were going to vibrate nasty like everyone complains. I am pleased to say the worked out great for me, no issues, just followed the factory torque specs and i was golden. I'm so glad i did this my car is alot easier to drive now shfting is buttery smooth again.

I also got this package from pelican parts, I should be installing the valve cover gasket this weekend.

now that I'm caught up on maintenance and working steadily again hopefully ill get some good progress on my car.


I also recently gave my brother my style 19's and we put them on his e46, he should be ordering coil overs soon.

You can tell that girl that it would look much better if she would try to bend her torso in order to stretch that ass. She looks stiff as a board.
