    I got them from a guy locally who changed to SSR Comps. i had to get spacers in order to mount them up but i think the look is perfect for this stance

    thanks for the compliments!

      don't complain about E30s in the snow if you are trying to drive on summer tires!

      although with the foot and a half it snowed here, I couldn't get out of my driveway for a day, even with snow tires - it was up to the bumpers of lifted 4x4 trucks. :(

              I got stuck in my eta this last sunday night on my way back to school... even a ETA with a 2.93 LSD...has no chance in the snow. I let the clutch out (no gas) and I just slid...fucking summer tires. It didnt help there was like 6in of snow on the road... My 2002 with studded snows has never gotten stuck...but it isnt seeing the road int he winter anymore.. Also WA DOT is not prepared for this weather and the rest of us gets screwed over because there is a lack of plows....

                    car looks nice, on the other hand, thank god the stupid crap you pulled is illegal here in germany- and comes with a nice hefty fine. I was stuck in a big ass traffic jam a few years back in the snow, got to the front, and it was a stupid ass soldier with bald ass 18" tires on a e32 clogging up the whole autobahn, it was honestly atleast a 3 mile traffic jam too. idiot.

                        I got studded snows on. We got a little dusting last night of snow, and on some sidestreets it froze on the ground. I had fun driving sideways thru turns.

                        Horray for the z3 steering rack!! :D
