    That blows, but I'm sure it could've been a lot worse.



    Good deal on the replacement parts, too.

      At least hooray for Multi-piece wheels. That saved you a fat chunk of change. God I love HRE's.

      And at least you're admitting you learned a lesson. Glad everything ended up being pretty minor in comparison.

              I think that's what I'm going to do.. I'll be sending 2 wheels back anyway since the other rear needs a bend fixed. Might as well do it now.. 2.5" lips. It would change from 19x8.5 et38 to... 19x9 et26?

                Wher eare you getting the rear adjustable camber arms for 150?
                Bought them from someone on e46fans brand new/in box. They're bimmerworld steel adjustable rear camber arms, pretty sure they're around 180 new.

                      Rear camber arms arrived today... was going to do it in the street but unfortunately I woke up to some snow. Sucks that the e30 is taking up garage space now that I seriously need it...

                      Wiring harness & camber arms... hopefully both cars will be driving around here soon

                            Not going to start a new thread for this, so...

                            Fixed it today! Doing the rear camber arms is a BITCH on the e46. No room to work with

                            wicked stance =/




                            hmm...


                            yup, it's bent alright


                            measuring to match... will get an alignment later, when i get camber plates.


                            all good

                                I normally like ZHP wheels, but your car requires more. Like 3" lips!
