My 1988 e30 325ix - Garage'd

I got something in the mail I've been wanting for a good amount of time now (ever since seeing Nandos build tbh). Should be getting these sorted soon. I think the rates on the spring are 375f/525r. Should be good for street driving with the occasional spirited driving. Anyway, I'm excited. I have the Koni shocks to go with them as well.

Got some more goodies in the mail today. This car is shaping up slowly.

DEPO? Looks great

Yes they are DEPO. I actually already put lamin-x yellow over them, but I will wait till the car is lowered to take a better picture.

At least get out there and give us another snow pic! ... Take advantage of that ride height while you still have it

I'd love to! Utah has been so dry this winter though. Seems like right now is our first snowstorm of the season down here in the valley. I'm not gonna slam it, but try to just balance out this crazy rake and wheel gap. I'm getting too old for a slammed car. I need one that doesn't require me to slam on my brakes anytime there is any type of dip in the road. Here is a pic if our conditions last week.

Why isn't this thing lowered yet

Soon. I gotta take everything apart. Remove the entire hub assembly, cut off the perches and weld in new ones then paint it and put it back together. I was looking at it last night and realized how much work it is going to be. I'm ready though.

Here is a recent front end picture from yesterday. I am wondering if anyone can give me some direction. I am having the hardest time finding wheels in the size and offset I need/want. Does anyone have websites to look? I want something new. I really wanted to get some 7Twenty Wheels - Style51, but the offset is et20 and on an ix, although it's possible, it's pretty stance boi and would require fender rolling, etc. I'm not in the mood for that. Anything in the ET30 realm is doable though. Thank you.

I think your car would look great with the 16” Alpina Reps now being sold by ClassicEuroParts, IE, and a few other places.

16x7, et28. They’re calling you

Been working on coilovers the last little while. It has never been my plan to slam it down to the ground, but something a little better than 4x4 status is really nice. I've only swapped out the front. I also found some e28 UUC adjustable endlinks for a killer deal here locally that worked out perfectly! I also am replacing my front driveshaft seal coming off the transfer case and that's why there aren't any good pictures of the cars height. I'll post some beautiful pics when I can.
