    bronzit is getting new shoes...

    so today I took out the e30 to get the 16's put on it, backstory on these is that I got them for free at a junkyard, they didn't know what to to with them so they were heading for the dumpster, I rescued them just in time. :p







    before shots, with the 14's on it








    I'm heading to the tire place and will post the afters later on today.

    If lucky, the E36 will die peacefully, in its natural habitat, and be given the prestigious honor of donating its parts to an E30

            Those aren't Style 5's. They're the wheels that came on the e38 740iL.

              assuming your getting a 5 lug swap at the local tire joint??? this should be good.

                They are style 5s... Obviously not the HOT 17" ones, but still Style 5s.

                  Word.

                  Just obviously everybody calls them 7 series baskets because they don't know any better because the 17" style 5s are more popular. They are 5 lug. He must have an entire M3 suspension he is putting on at the same time of this wheel swap, or he isn't going to be a happy camper.

                  Or is some redrillage going to happen?

                      I'm guessing that a 4 to 5 lug adapter will be used?

                              No.. cause they are dangerous and shouldn't be used.
