    Wow, I didn't realize Norway was so unfriendly to modified cars.



    Your E30 is beyond well-put together. God damn, it's perfect.

    If he ordered CCW's, then they would be Complete Custom Wheels made to his specs. If he asked for +0 offset, he would have been given +0 offset.

    Trying to calculate what these wheels from a picture is silly.


    This car is amazing, the quality and detail is amazing

    But in the meantime, you can check out how it sits in my garage















    Wheels are CCW LM20 9x17" +6 and 10x17" +0, with 205/40 and 225/35 Falken FK452. 5 inch lip rear and 3 inch lip in front, JDM grey centers and gold studs.

    Be back with more as soon as the snow gets the hell outa here
    hmm wouldn't that be -7 offset in the rear & not 0 if it was 0 offset wouldnt it be 4.75 of lip? or am I wrong? Also how much do they weigh with and without tires?

    Thank you all

    The brakes are NEW original Alpina B6 296mm disks, calippers and pump. These are almost the only brakes that fits the original hubs and at the same time legal on the car. The car is dyno`ed 263hp. Dont know the rules in the states, but here in Norway, all modified cars must be controlled and approved by the Norwegian DMV to go on public roads. Thats not easy, but this car is approved with the turbo-rebuild, brakes and suspension. Thats why i "only" have 263hp. I`ve seen many point out why the hell i didnt put 500hp into it when i built it, but if you crash a car thats been tuned illegally, or worse, kill someone...youre pretty much fucked.

    Also seen people asking why i still have the original AFM, same thing. Rules. They will not approve aftermarket ECU`s in Norway.

    dzidziusbmw: Nice DIY on the rear lights!

    Thanks for all comments
