    My 89' 325is

    Here we go...


    Just picked it up about a month ago.
    Right now the only "mods" are eibach springs, bilstein sport shocks, and the Zender Challenge 15x7 wheels with Yokohoma AVS es100 225/50-15 rubber. It handles like a motha. :twisted: Actually the eibachs are a little soft for my taste and I'll be eventually replacing the system with GC coilovers and Koni Adjustables.
    It came with a nice Momo wheel and shifter knob, and I have a lower-end Pioneer deck with an Alpine V12 5-channel running MB Quart 5.25" components and a 10" Alpine Type-R sub. Its got a nice clean sound to it.
    It does need some bodywork, but I didn't show you that side of the car. :P

              car looks nice, you're off to a good start. GC's come with Eibach springs, however, the good part about it is that you choose what spring rate you want.....

                Hey Brew, looks good from that angle... why don't you let everyone see the driver's side rear fender? ;) I can't believe 225's fit on the Zenders.

                And by the way, can I finally have my snow tires and wheels now? I might be around this weekend. I've been stuck some mornings having to drive over ice with the Yokohamas still on... NOT FUN.

                  Nope.

                  Yeah, definitely. You can pick them up any time. I'm gonna try and get them balanced this week. By the way, the new wheels and tires are smooth as butta at 110. Not that I tested them or anything.

                    Why not? It's a 7" wide wheel. Lots of people run 225's on 7's. Myself included.

                        I run 225/45's on 7.5" wide rims, and they still bulge a little. Those Zenders on Brew's car used to be mine and they came with 195/60's. I didn't think 225's would fit safely.
