    Your wrong, many r3vers like 15's and 16's. that's the black vs white argument on wheel size on r3v.

                  I wrote a DIY for it, but it has to get approved by one of the Mods
                  You need a new 3v slim battery (CR1632) and a 3.2v white LED, essentially

                  Hopefully it gets posted soon as everything is explained much more in depth on the DIY

                  You can get everything you need at your local RadioShack for under $10

                    I really want e46 style keys. I don't even care for the keyless entry, I just think that those are the best looking keys BMW ever produced. But I've never been able to find blanks that will work with an e30.
                    The first car I ever rode in was an e30

                      Eh... I like the original e30 lighted keys.
                      Simple, small, understated, has a light. e46 keys are bulky and hurt in my pocket honestly..

                            He goes way in depth to the point your drowned with a lot of info in the beginning, but the concept is the same. Pretty much everything you need to know

                              18s fit on M3's no problem.

                              steven dont get wheels that big and heavy until you've swapped the motor. 16x7 or 16x8 are what fit best on that car. hell, someone of 15x7s will beat you in a drag and in the turns just due to too much rotational mass
                              Much wow

                                for the price, you really can't beat a set of redrilled e38 weaves.

                                good offset, they are *light* even compared to most "tuner" wheels, they have a look that "belongs" on an e30, and most importantly, they are not shitty mainland-China-made knockoffs like Rota/ESM/list-continues.
