My '93 Mauritius Blue E30 Convertible

Thanks guys!

Good luck trying to tuck a 16x9 +0 ... Might want to go
with a narrower wheel

I've already contacted Evasive Motorsports about getting a pair of 16x8 or 16x8.5 Works. It's a 90 day wait and over $1000 so I'm gonna try to see if I can get the 16x9s I have to fit before I order, but I'm 90% sure I'm gonna be ordering some narrower fronts.

Are those coco floor mats? Show some interior shots. I foolishly gave away a set of mint OEM natur mats not knowing.

Yeah they are haha. I love them. Once I have it cleaned up and a little time I'll do an actual shoot and I'll be sure to get some interior shots.

Here's a couple shitty instagram photos

The night I picked it up from Eurowise:


At work:


And then.... test fit

Wow! Why did you go with bags vs other options?

Wow! Why did you go with bags vs other options?

I've had slammed cars on coils and I still wanted to look but didn't want to destroy my car. The ability to raise up when I have to is amazing.

I picked up some cheap temporary ESMs yesterday I found on Craigslist. They came with tires, luckly only the wrong size in the front. They're 16x8 +5 (after 15mm spacer for clearance and looks) 205/45 front and 16x9 +15 205/40 rear. I'll be getting smaller tires for the front soon, probably 205/40s since I already have a pair of those sitting in my garage. They were intended for the 16x9 +15 Works I have that don't fit :(

I'm planning on ordering a pair of 16x8 Work Meister S1Rs so that I can have a set of four that fit the car. I'm committed to running those wheels because they're one of my absolute favorites. Anyway, I've got to finish installing my Euro Trim, and install my IS lip tomorrow, so hopefully I'll have some pics of it (actually edited for real) tomorrow night.

On to the few shitty photos I have:






Damn those editing effects make me cringe, but you get the idea. I shot in CR2 and realized afterwards I forgot my computer. I'm visiting my girlfriend's family for the weekend and I had to add effects to convert them to JPG on the camera (unless there's another way to do it) so that my girlfriend's parents' computer could read them. Oh well.

Car looks great! I cant wait to see it in person.

I like the wheels on that first vert, what are they??

I've never seen them before.

[KevinC]

They're 15x7 Enkei 92s. You'll need a pretty big spacer to clear the brakes in the front but I can't remember what size.

I couldn't resist going and taking a few pictures of the car since I got back to my place. Finished installing the euro trim and IS lip. I'll be waiting at least the next couple months for a pair of 16x8 +3 S1Rs for the front. Until then I'll be on the ESMs.

I've got some smoked turn signal lenses and amber bulbs on the way so that'll be next.

It's been forever since I've touched my camera. Enjoy anyway.

Those work wheels look fantastic!

Those work wheels look fantastic!

Thanks man! I think so too. I've got one tire mounted on one of them and I did a test fit. They're 16x9 +15 but I'm going to run a 15mm spacer all the way around to get them to +0. Here's the test fit in the front (16x9 +0). I'm going to be on 205/40s all around. Instagram photo is all I've got.

Makes me miss my mauritus something fierce :(

[KevinC]

Dude I'm jealous of the hardtop and your lightless trunk. Two things I definitely want to do to mine.

[KevinC]

The Works are on!
