    can somebody help me with some big lips?

    im looking for some really DEEP dish style wheels in the back and semi-deep in the front.
    this 318 will be auto-x and personal drift events, nothing professional yet.

    i prefer 17+ since the car is lifted 1" in the back and stock in the front. can u help point me towards the right wheels?

        Please explain why a 85rwhp 318i need 18x9.5 wheels with 3.5inches of lip? and how exactly you drift with said rwhp. You wouldn't be able to break that much rubber free with a 7000rpm 1st gear clutch drop.

        To fit those wheels, much less with tires on them, you are going to need to consider a widebody, and a well sorted suspension.. but again.. m10 318i.

            lol flame on guy but i have a lil suprise.
            btw dont worry about my horsepower buddy, i mean trust me when i say i'll have more pushing those wheels than whatever you own. no doubt about it.
            anyways, i want something really aggressive and different, WAY different and out of the usual. my fenders will be stretched out crazy, no need for a widebody kit. that shit is stupid if you dont have an m3.

            i dont think 18x9.5 rear and 18 or 17x8 front will be a bad idea. if i do get them i promise you'll drool

                  No shit. These kids are coming out of the woodwork lately?

                  I bet you your life (which is pretty much worthless to me so safe bet) that you will never have any wheels on there to make me drool. For a couple bucks more I might go so far as to say make anyone here drool.



                  So do tell us how many HORSEPOWERZZ you plan to have? What engine swap or how many TURBOZ?

                        I have the same setup for my 91 300zx Twin turbo. 18x9.5 in the rear and 18x8.5 in the front. I have them for my Z for looks alone. If you plan on doing any AutoX Sportmax wheels are WAY to heavy. I would go for like a light weight 15x7.5 or maybe a 16x8

                          16" will definately be my auto-x choice. i dont think i can beat anything in my catagory or lower with 18"s. but for street n drift, 18 will be all i need.



                          as for horses, think crazy like 400+. and like i said, dont worry about what im doing to it. i will start a thread here when im all finished to have everybody astonished. i mean i'll be one of the few E30's to keep up wit srt's, M5's, maybe lambos n horsies! i mean the sky is the limit when a budget on an e30's performance is 50k. really guy.

                          i do have 2 318's and for my M10 i might be doing the same wheel setup but that will only be for looks.

                            There is only one person making an ass of himself in this thread, and it isn't me.

                            I know more about e30's then you could ever hope and dream too, I'm also moving to Houston over thanksgiving weekend. You would be well served to:

                            A.) Take the shit people dish you. You are new, its standard operating procedure.
                            B.) Don't make stupid threads or claims to garner yourself extra shit.
                            C.) Befriend local e30 guru's.

                            FYI, Slander is spoken word, Libel is written. Neither is going on in this thread.
                            Also FYI, your behavior is well on track to getting flamed/IP banned off the forum. Don't act like a douche and you'll be fine.

                              Because I doubt you, put up some pics, put your money where your mouth is and lets see what ya got. Who clumps M5's and srt's in the same post, let alone paragraph.
