      sweet dude! Love the wheels!

      How is the EBC setup working so far? I just put them on my jeep and like them a lot, thinking about the same setup for the E30.

      Sold.......again.

        Yes sir, it's my daily. I wouldn't call the ride harsh, but it is very stiff. It isn't as teeth rattling and kidney jarring as I thought it would be, honestly. Yes you feel a lot, some bumps can be a little rough, but overall I think it's great.

        I really like them so far, they are way better than stock...although I'm sure the stainless lines and larger brakes are a big part of it.

          Wow man, what a great looking car. The only thing I would do personally is have the iS lip painted black. Nicely done man. Is it an M42?

                  I bought another set then took a grinder to them. They turned out really well.

                            M42?! SLAM IT!

                            Looks SUPER delicious! I have always wondered how the 17" Style Fives would look on an Alpine Coupe. It's definitely very nice! Get some caps on those wheels!
