again with a broken record, tries. You could fit a shoe in that gap.
other than that it looks awesome
EDIT: also use some zipties to pull in the ends of your volvo lip, makes it look a LOT better

Didn't you see Star Wars? Its a stormtrooper...minus the black wheels. And I re-installed the chrome roof gutter trim because I hated the poor-quality m-tech black trim done by the PO.
Wheels are 16X8 XXR 521's. I am pretty sure the offset is 20. The tires were basically free and will be corrected when they wear out.Leave a comment:

not a big fan of the tint sorry,
what id do is repaint the trims and the grills, little things make big difference trust me :)
nice Volvo lipLeave a comment:

Clean car, I like it. Nothing wrong with not "super slamming" the car but with your current height you really can't pull off those undersized tires. Would look better with some 205/50 or 225/45.Leave a comment:

I need those drop hats... I have the dreaded reverse rake at the moment.It has E90 drop hats in the front, so it actually is down a bit in the front. It looks so high in pics but is plenty low in daily driving. I think the 521's are 20mm offset. But I do agree the fronts could be tucked ion a few mm. I'm afraid the new tires will rub up front
edit: Schnitzer - I might hit you up for some turbo info when that day comes. I am content not to put a big heavy engine in the front in order to make decent power.
Let me know about the turbo... happy to help. It makes plenty of power, am thinking about getting it dyno'd this next weekend. Would have to drive to Houston to do it, but hey would be fun.Leave a comment:

You have a 318, a late model, and H&R sports. Of course you have reverse rake ;)
Looks like a clean base for molestation though :up:Leave a comment:

Looking good. With XXR's though I love the rear fitment and not so much with the front. I am in the same boat with mine... if only the front were +20 and not +15.Leave a comment:

Not as low as some of you guys but that Volvo lip still scrapes on everything. No great loss if it falls off right?

Optical illusion, it has forward rake

Say what you will about XXR's they fit nice. This Maxxis 215 40 16 looks perfect. not nearly as stretched as the Sumitomos on the other 3 wheels
