They look sweet!!! Always park at least 1 ft from curbs!!! I got my first curb rash today (about 3 inches). I was sooo pissed at myself  . I hope it never happens again. I feel like punching myself  __________________  | | | | | 04-05-2006, 02:12 AM | #3 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Thousand Oaks, California Posts: 343 |

should be a nice suspension setup. what size are the tires you have on? hopefully you don't get any rubbing when you drop it. __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles

I was looking into these rims but 17's and decided not to cause of the weight. Haven't seen them on a ti yet just regular e36's but they do look sweet. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active
