well done mate, those are seriously tasty! well nice

was looking at a set of wide RM's the other day on the bay......
out of interest, what's the offset? and what size rubber are you gonna run front and back?

cheers buddy

Haven't worked out the offset yet, and tyres wiil be a "Stretch" look, only slight mind, so 195/45/15 fronts and 205/45/15 rears.

Oh yeah sorry Rav,

Got the cluster fine. I just find the zone a little daunting. Put a technical thread up asking how to adjust the mileage to the one I already have and me and the guy who helped me were accused of encouraging E30 clocking - unbelievable! If you need me to leave feedback though, just let me know and I'll be happy to speak in favour.

BTW where did you get your alloys refurbed? Mine need doing and I'd like to have the lip polished at the same time.

Feedback would be great mate, look for it in the obvious section with my user name.
Alloys were refurbed at a place called "Speedwell Wheels".

Should be able too, taking a leaf out of "Verdi"s book and going for arch extensions.

that is a substantial amount of stretch, 205's on a 9" width is pretty aggresive

Not everyday driving.

Congrads, I have the same ones and have 2.0 lips in the rears and 1.5 lips in the front.

I still have not hunted down bolts and 1/2 center caps...once I get those I am going to powdercoat the centers silver flake and assemble them.

Nice, whats the offset for yours??? and are you using spacers??

JJGBMW323 · Post by **JJGBMW323** » Sun Sep 20, 2009 3:03 am

Yeah my cat Ramos likes BBS RMs.

I am going to run a 5 mm spacer front and an 8 mm spacer rear.
I have to clear the control arms in the front. The stock offset is 33mm or something, but with the 1.5 in the front I am not sure what they become.

I am thinking about gloss black powdercoat the centers, or a full polish.....
