    '89 Lachssilber bbs rs003

    This is my 2nd e30. Coincidentally being only 62 spots in production apart from my previous e30 (shown by serial# part of vin)

    Over the last few months I've changed a many things on the car. I owe a BIG thanks to Spaz (http://r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=160490) for all of his help and time.


    Specs when I picked it up:

    Purchased August of '09
    1989 325i
    202,000 KM's

    Heated grey cloth comfort interior
    Premium audio (light grey speaker shelf w/ light grey speaker covers)
    Grey door & rear cards
    OE mudflaps front & rear
    Manual crank sunroof

    6 days after buying it, the water pump totally seized while driving home from Washington state. What a great way to get things started..





    This is the earliest picture I took of the car. Suspension, lights, trim already installed:

        evo3 said they end up @ about et6.
        the lips are 2.5", original offset is 25mm

        Tires are 205/45.

          thank you for your answer... the rear has the same offset?

          are you running the 60/40 H&R springs?

                  If I were to ever do BBSs that's what I'd want them to look like on my car.

                              I think they are more 40/40 springs.

                              E30 H&R Race Spring Set
                              Part #: 50404-88
                              -1.6"/-1.5"

                              yep, front and rear wheels are same offset
