17x8" ET25: Lightweight Track Wheels: APEX ARC-8 HERE NOW!

[Hodge]

Sorry....I had a massive headache all day yesterday..still enjoyd the picnic, but didn't feel like taking really good pics.

I took a few at home, nothing special, but much better than the phone pics.

I promise I'll try to make it out this coming weekend to get some much nicer photos to look at. I planned to get some at the park, but like I said, my headache sucked big time.

You can also check out the Ferman BMW page on FaceBook by searching for "Ferman BMW" then going to the "Florida Suncoast BMWCCA Picnic" photo album. My e30 was among 3 nice 2002's! One was an "M2" with an S14 EVOII motor :)

Hodge, you deserve some kinda of commission... your car sold a set of these to me.

I am inclined to agree :nice:

[Fidhle007]

Hodge, you rock! I'm building a red E30 now and I suddenly feel VERY GOOD about it!

[george graves]

Hodge - those really do look good - car is looking hot. When you get a chance, please grab a decent digital camera and take some proper pic of your car.

[Hodge]

These were actually taken with my DSLR...I was just sloppy.

I need to whip the 40-150mm out...it has always taken way better pics than the 14-48mm.

Oh...um...ok...now this is awkward. Sorry.

[Bishop]

lol, are you lookin to buy a set George?

[george graves]

Not right now - I'm broke from not working. And I can't decided if I like the spokes going to the lip.

[Bishop]

I didn't really at first, but I'm really loving these wheels. There are some angles just looking at the car, it looks fantastic.

[Hodge]

Oh...um...ok...now this is awkward. Sorry.

Yeah these are probably the worst pictures I have ever taken with the DSLR lol.

[craz azn]

Gawddamn, I really, really need to get a set of these for my car...

Hodge, your car looks awesome man. I think it sold a set for me too lol.

Hodge, your car is beautiful!

Nice BMWCCA badge you got there ;)... That'll keep some coin in your pocket!
Eddy your rim design just "finishes" our e30s!!

Little mini post review...
After I bought these rims, much, but not all, of my car's vibration problems were solved. Then, I took the car to BMW for a new driveshaft and steering rack. After, that the car was completely, utterly smooth! I've been driving on these wheels for about 5000 miles now. Took a couple of unintended Washington, DC potholes. The wheels are holding up GREAT! Great buy!!

Hodge,

fantastic looking photos. Even if they are not your best ;)

It looks like there is tons of room up front. You must have seriously dumped the front to have rubbing issues (probably would have been riding on bumpstops if you left it there).

At that ride height, the 215's actually look decent :D

[Hodge]

Yeah I was on bump stops. It was ridiulously low (but looked sexy as hell). I literally tucked about half way down that 215/40/17 tire.

I can't wait to take better pics this weekend. Keep in mind my sister did take a bunch of the pics as well. Sadly, most of the ones she took were better than mine (why am I telling you guys this?) I have a few spots in mind for some nice pics, so hopefully I will get nice weekend weather.

I must give props to ngcreese for providing pics of the 215/40/17 size that sold me on the size.

I really don't want to touch the fenders, and 215/40 fit perfect and look good too.

I am glad you guys like the car. Best thing I ever did (outside of the paint job) was go back to black moldings and rockers.

Fun story:
My mom was talking to one of the ladies at the picnic, and the lady was wondering where I was so she could whip her checkbook out and write down a magic number. I lol'd when she told me.

Also, I am in a few of these pics :)
