    Did you decide to put the rims on the coupe?

      Looks nice. Do you have any plans for it or just drive it?

        Well....my "plan" is to flip it. I paid a little for it and it needs a bit of work. I know, odd that an e36 needs some work, right? It runs excellent but it aint no e30. These 2 cabrio are totally different. This thing drives like a caddy but faintly like a BMW. Ive had an e46 that feels better than this but this one is a trimed down version....non sport. A great DD imo. Not a drop of oil too.
        To make it my own, I was going to run these. BBS RSII 17x8

        I picked them up for this very project but might hold on to them for something else in the future.

        Please swing by some time and let me borrow your front adapter to see if it will clear. I put one up to the cabrio as well and looked...a bit donkish.

          The major issue with this cabrio is its fully auto top and this was the problem. The e30 cabrio is a cakewalk compared to this thing. But I think I have all the parts to fix it.

          Unfortunatly, I forgot the tool to take the brackets off so I just got the top down.

          And since I had a little time, I just put on the RSIIs. I think it makes the car! The front needs to come down quite a bit but still an improvement from the stock 15"ers.




          More to come.
          Cheers!

                  Not bad but needs a slight drop in the front to get rid of 4x4 look. Some touch up paint on the edge of the trunk at the dent.

                          I wouldnt mind Avus but can be picky. Oddly enough silver and BMW follow me.

                          I wouldnt mind finding a color next.

                          Very true! The Tires are a bit small/stretched but they are in better nic than the 15s. I got it with not even 10 miles on new struts so im not sure if springs or in my future.

                          Its got a few cosmetic flaws but I hope to address them.

                          It was actually the what made me buy the car. I had the wheels lined up before buying the car. Stanced correctly and it will look really nice. Concavity FTW!
