      Is California special or something?
      We just have 2 seasons, without any salt on our roads. Just look at some of the cars from the "rust belt". You'll realize why we're so lucky to have cheap, and clean e30's.

                I need your guys' help. I posted this as its own topic but ill ask on here too. Hey just got new tires on all fours, but now when I turn right I hear a knocking type noise!. Same size tires as what I previously had on. There was spare tire on the front right when I bought and that where i think the noise is coming from. I have never heard it before though. I was thinking the tire is hitting something. I tried feeling around the tire and didnt feel anything. Turned the wheel all the way to the right still didnt feel rub?
                Is it something else on the suspenision?

                tires are 205/50/16

                  sounds like the wheelweight, mine was rubbing on the sway one time. same noise, a spacer resolved it.

                    I dont know much about wheels. They were balanced and everything. Never happened before. What size spacer?

                      Here are some pics of the space between the shock and the rim. I think its a metal cliip on the inside of the rim hitting the shock.
                      5mm spacers? 8mm?

                        Nice catch. I would suggest that you get rims that have the right or a better offset. That looks waaaaaaaay too close to the strut housing and that clip that is hitting it is the weight they (Tire Place) put on to balance the tire and wheel. That is a really nice E30 you have, best of luck and treat her well.

                        How do I spell stress relief?:hitler:

                          just get the wheels rebalanced with stick on weights-- they sit in the lip- and you will be fine there.

                          your ugly shifter knob is also installed backwards-- buy a new leather one from bmw- you#ll love it

                          nice looking car btw.

                              Yeah there is some stick on weights already. I took the clip weight off and the knocking is gone! :)

                              The knob is comfy how it is but i can try switching it.

                              THANKS A TON!
                              I'll keep you all updated on it
