    chris13tophers' 1987 e30 325IS Memphis, TN

    Hello everyone! My name is Christopher and I just picked a 1987 325IS. It has about 101k miles. Some of you might recognize this car as its previous owner was on here with it. It has seen a lot of track time as well(previous owner).







    Here's some of the parts. There's more but I could only fit this much in the car...

      Indeed welcome. I'm in Olive Branch so not too far away. Where do they have SCCA events around here? I want to come too!

                Hey! It looks like you're my grandparents' neighbor. random shot in the dark...

                Would you happen to live in Germantown? That looks alot like grove park cove.

                If it is, my Mercedes (which i inherited from my late grandfather) is parked down the street.

                    Thanks guys! Haha, the rims are the original 14". The rims in the back are Fittipaldi. I'm close to Germantown! I live in Cordova. Put on the Fittipaldi rims that came with the car. Also took all the stickers off.

                      Looks much better without all the stickers. Lol so many of the communities look exactly the same down there I swear...

                          I'll save you quick, it is wheels not rims. The rim is the outside ring of the wheel. The stickers made it look crappy, not even mounted to look good.

                          Needs a little bit in the suspension area but other than that it is clean.

                              Yeah, they are slicks. Going to get street tires put on later this week. Thanks for the heads up!! bcaps??? I'm new to the BMW world, I was mostly a Nissan guy. If you're talking about the stock wheels, they are 195/45/14 rain tires.
