Alright guys ... lets see some SLAMMED e30s

[BimmerTim]

See, I told you!

Hipster are flowing right thru the cracks with their skinny jeans, pink sunglasses, flat bills, and a can of PBR.

I knew this thread was a bad idea.

Just curious, what size tyres are you guys running? Because by the looks of it to be ultra low you're gonna need to run some pretty small tyres.

It's all dependent on wheel size.

I don't know about 17's (Byron would though), but on my 16x8s I'm running 205/45/16s. I've also tried 205/40/16s but deemed them too small.

The problem is that there aren't many people who would even want to spend the time and money to slam a car that's only worth a couple of grand, especially since doing so is pretty much guaranteed to lead to a cracked oil pan or at the very least prematurely wear out other bits of the suspension.

your reasoning here would make it seem more logical to beat up an older $3k car rather than a brand new one, wouldn't it?

[VicSkimmr]

Probably :P But doing so involves spending lots of money on suspension and wheels, probably more than the car itself is worth.

ColdAccord.... So we meet again...

Maybe you should invest in some of those glasses, to match your fender :-D

[BimmerTim]

Damn it. You got me there. :D

I also really love PBR. Not in a trendy way though.

great, glad to hear. I started a business with a friend of mine in norfolk, va. moved it back up here a year later. did a few different things, sold sportbikes in the south, s50/s52 swap cars, now working on getting a dealership license up here, have a full shop set up already



we also have a huge showroom we need to renovate, will hopefully double as an artspace/musicspace/partyspace

[ck_taft325is]

That's awesome as hell.

[CleanAzzE30z]

I love the music/art/party space idea.

[4ce30]

[ck_taft325is]

That's plenty low.

I'm running 245/40/17 and this is about as low as I can go, and my fenders are pulled. Granted I'm on e36 suspension, 3deg camber, et38 wheels with 20mm spacer to clear front callipers.

It's all dependent on wheel size.

I don't know about 17's (Byron would though), but on my 16x8s I'm running 205/45/16s. I've also tried 205/40/16s but deemed them too small.

The perfect height for slamming is about 23" overall height. 205/45/16 is usually perfect for 16's, 205/40/16's makes the body of the car too low. 205/40/17 is unfortunatly a little too big, and the only 195/40/17 is a Yokohama Sdrive, which is a good tire but runs wide for a 195. The next size smaller for 17's is 185/35/17 but that has the same problem as the 205/40/16's.

Nick posted so now i have to...
and nick i gotta say that vert is looking slammed!

same pic photoshopped hah.

No, no, you're right.

For now we allow threads with slammed e30s, soon we will allow hipsters with tight pants. I don't even want to think about what comes after that.

My car is low, but not slammed, because I drive mine at more than 40 mph daily w/o air (unfortunately, but hopefully some time in the near future). Your comment about hipsters is ironic as fuck though.

You would...

It's not about size, its how you use it... or your girl said somethin like that.





I mean shit, where i'm at i'm already about 3" off the asphalt. That drop would be another 2" or so... my pan would break every 50' w/o the plate, and that would throw sparks down every road i drove on lol.
