    Best tap and die set for the E30 owner?

    Looking for the best set that would cover the common thread sizes and pitches found on E30s. What do you guys get?

                  well That H/F set is good for chasing threads and cleaning up slightly damaged thread. I dont think it will hold up well to actually cutting new threads for fabrication needs or up sizing a hole in fresh material for more than a couple holes or chunks of bar stock.

                  Look though Production Tool Supply's catalog they have some very good all metric sets, though they are a bit more costly IIRC were about 250 a bucks for my 41pc metric set I bought about 10 years ago.
