update

well I'm finally back from school for spring break and got started on some things. And since nobody even reads this shit ill be quick... So I got my wheels finally and put a few decent tires on them

17x9 et: ghey 215/45
17x8 et: gheyer 205/45
This is right when I put them on, no rolling/pulling but lots of rubbing and it wasn't very low

(I'm sorry for my stupid grainy pictures)

after that I tried to clean the nasty wheels up a little bit and lowered the front of the car to try and get the gap even from front to rear.

I think it looks nice. I tried to massage the fenders but the rear passenger side had rust under the paint and literally flew off the fender the rest where fine.... I tried to stay classy with the GQ magazines haha

So thats all I've really had time to do I need to put an o2 sensor in and fix a tail light bulb but other than that I'm really happy with the car <3333

Well got a little bit of an update, Ive been away at school trying to get my stuff together. And by that I mean I've been looking at stance works all day in my lectures. Anyway i just picked up some style 32's i got 2-17x8's and 3-17x9's from a local guy. They are plastidipped pretty badly but I'm going to strip them down and repaint them probably white, or cream I'm not sure let. Give me ideas for colors. I'm just partial to white wheels. I would like Tiffany blue/teal/green what ever but I don't want to look like a scene fag.... cause I'm not

The spare wheel is in the best condition, and I'm not sure if I'm going to just use a stripper and get it down to metal or just peel the dip off. I might be getting them powder coated locally depending on the price / condition of the wheels. I don't want to "polish a turd" if you know what I mean.

Let me know what you think!

Well I got rid of my 540i Because I was tired of having a giant expensive Police attracting attention whore and I missed the e36 chassis's simplicity and low cost. so ill try and keep this organized as I go.

So I picked up a 1997 328i 5speed/auto top/ black on tan with 171k for a good deal and drove it 4 hours home

This is 10 mins after I bought it from the guy had good records no rust but a little body damage below the twilight.

Because i don't know how to leave things stock on the way home for PA I picked up some used Race lands to hold me over till i decided what i really wanted to do with the car, they were cheap and practically new.

The car also came with this dope ass shift knob of an earlier bmw

So after a few days I got around to slapping the coilovers on witch was a breeze other than the tires rubbing on the springs. It had 225/50/16's and instead of running spacers like everyone else I just put some 205/55 on the bitch and it has worked like a charm. I was impressed with the quality considering what I've heard about Raceland. I had Fortune Auto's on my 740 and Megans on my 540 so I can tell you these ride way worse then both of them (the Fortunes being the best) but saying that these are a third of the price and I am completely satisfied and would recommend them to any one.
This was right when I put them on

After that it got CRAZY cold and we got a bunch of snow witch slowed my progress but I must say this car did absolutely fantastic in 6in of snow haha it was insane to say the least.

On my endless searching of Craigslist I found a great deal on some corbeau's and had to pick them up especially considering my seats where trashed.

They came with honda accord brackets that were easy to modify and actually worked great and sat low.

adjusted the Emergency brake and lowered it a little and other than that have been drifting and enjoying the car. Now that I'm away at school I can't work on it so I'm saving my money and planning.
