Need oppinions

[Vince30]

I am looking at rims to buy and i found some cool ones in a 17, is a 17 to big for an e30? Or am i just worrying to much?

Donk status. Get springs first.

[Vince30]

I want rims then springs.

Suspension first. And depends on the car.

17s aren't my thing, but there are plenty of nice cars that will tell you otherwise.

I'm the master of the universe, and I'm sorry to inform you that you want things in the wrong order.

That is not how you do it:down:

[Vince30]

But I really do not like my bottle caps and want to change them as soon as possible.

I have 17's and I think they look really good but my car is really low. Do suspension first then wheels.

[Vince30]

and i guess well we are talking about it were is a good place to buy a lowering kit?

You have a lot of reading and lurking to do.

I am new to the e30s so apparently.

There's a ride height thread somewhere, that'll help you. Once you find a stance you like get the suspension. Then drop some dough on wheels. Iono about 17s, but if it's what you want I'm not gonna stop you.

Lower the car first then wheels, like that there is not back and forth or room for those famous words OH SHIFT!!!

en engrish, preez?

needs come before wants, my friend. you obviously dont have suspension, and already have wheels, so go with suspension first, then see what fits.

dont try to reinvent the wheel, as everyone else prior to you has accomplished the suspension before the wheels

[wolfgangstbd]

its not a escalade. you want WHEELS but your car would look like shit with 17's on stock ride height.

+1 on everyone who said suspension first
you seem like you would be happy with an H&R cup kit
