Hi. Think I've seen you around before. Are you on other forums as well? Mainly bf.c or stanceworks?

I'm on bimmerforums but dont really post on there. not on stance works either. i Believe there is a guy that had a car similar to mine on there (5 lug enkei reps)

So apparently the IE has its own cars & cuppachino meet. It is organized by the riverside international raceway muesum folks. It is held down the street from the museum at a coffee place from 9am to 1pm. Doesn't seem to be very big. I have not attended yet but I want to blow it up. Whos down? I can put it on blast all over the place.

What day

Are these wheel locks? any idea on removing if it is without the key?

[einstein57]

That is a very common tuner lug/wheel lock

[mcskibadee1]

kinda new here. thought i'd introduce myself in this thread.

Tanner from Corona, CA.

Currently building an '89 325i for track use. slowly chipping away at it.

I've been building Honda track cars for a little over ten years. This is my first BMW build.

I like to frequent GMR. never at night, only in the morning or at dusk (i'd rather not hit a fellow cyclist)

anyway, heres a quick shot from Saturday evening on my way back down to civilization.

Hope to see you up there, or at buttonwillow soon.

Hi Tanner!!!!:-D I think you will feel right at home here as it is very similar to lafixed. A lot of bickering, sexual innuendos but there is genuine love among the locals.

Unless your black, mexican, armenian, persian, or a ginger.

[R3Z3N]

Can't take a ginger or curly hair seriously. For cereal.

Any idea on how to remove them?

[E30_Pare]

Me, shitty shipping to canada. Sent a vintage amp that weighed 70lbs and had fedex box it. Shit was broke when it got to the buyer.

shiet bro. that makes me sad. im expecting a 30lb package tomorrow & ive got a gut feeling its going to be trashed.

With a matching key

those are on the dc2 huh... anyways you could try taking it to a tire shop. Dont buy the cheap tuner keys cause they break easy especially if the lugs are on tight.

Depends what and where its coming from

[mcskibadee1]

This is ghetto and last resort but you could hammer on a socket that is a tad smaller and then twist off.

Nope not the dc2, it's on the e30 I just got. All the lug bolts are like this :-| , I'll try to see if I can find the original key. Thanks pare.
