    Chicken before the egg situation. No wide 16s because no wide lightweight 16" wheels, thus no reason for wide tires, thus no reason for wheels....etc

      Will 16s even clear M3 brakes?

        Only certain ones. I had a set of AT Italia contour reps that were 16x7.5 for winter wheels at one point. Kinda regret selling them, but such is life.

          16s on an E36 M3? bleh.

          16s are best on an E30, 15s work well too, 17s too big. 17s perfect for E36 and E28.

          There be my take.

            16s look good on e30s, specifically bbs rs 16x8, 5 lugs, with the conversion of course.

            e36 needs at least 16s and 17s are pretty good. 18 is too big, 15 too small.

            e28 on the other hand needs some sweet 18s with a HUGE dish. mmmm.


            Looking for a clean e30 shell for a project.

                      So....an automotive abortion finally got aborted, and people are sad?

                      It sucks the owner lost so much in a fire, but trying to start an engine for shits and giggles with open gas cans is just darwinism in action. 404 caring not found. That car should haveen put out of its misery long ago rather than be subjected to hipster douchebro stancework crap. Fucking hipsters.

                        I care. I care in the way that it is effing HILARIOUS that that dang abomination finally died!! I mean, it was maybe awesome BEFORE the air bags and the roof chop and the Nissan engine and the gold freaking wheels... but then it just went waaay too far, and finally died in a fire.

                        I am pleasantly amused.

                          Ha, I liked the Nissan twin turbo motor in it, only part of it I liked.

                            exactly. 15 in weaves or 17 in what-cha-ma-call-its below in sig..


                            best iteration of the car was before the engine swap

                            No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.
