    This is mine in my 318i. I love it

    Best wheel for a vintage german car of this era. No competition.

Its really simple. If its likely had a head job then you timing chain and guides are likely new so no worries on those.
      I have never understood why people swap out 21lb injectors for 19lb injectors for performance gain. I guess if you recal to match the lower flow rate of the injectors the idle is probably better with the better atomisation. Never understood why people don't get injectors with newer technology that flow as much as stock or greater.

      Just food for thought!

          In, sick car. Want to get compomotive THs for my 318, but they discontinued the 16" version. What tire size are you running on the 17s?

                  What jesse at sssquid tuning told me and he has tuned all my cars which equates to thousands in engine builds so i trust his knowledge.

                    Ah, you got me excited there. I thought you said Mtech 1 (370mm). I would have gladly taken that off your hands and made your decision easier :)

                      Im actually waiting on a quote from personal on a lesmo wheel. If its to outrageous im going to be picking up a mtech1 370 if a member on here still has it.

                        Show and no Go 318is DD comfort Build.

                        Good choices. Since you have an air bag car make sure you space out the wheel with the spacers or washers depending how much it needs spaced. You may also need to pull the white tab and spring out of the column that automatically turn your blinker off as on some wheels it will catch and lock the wheel up for a split second. On my 318 i had to use washers and pull that tab out. Not that big of a deal to me but may be to some.

                                Nope all air bag vars are that way. Cause they only make non air bag after market hubs
