New wheels turned up today courtesy of RUSHY. going to need the arches rolling on the back as expected as they scrub now and again. http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/3403/img0985hi.jpg http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/2092/img0988da.jpg http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/1149/img0974p.jpg http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/2708/img0975i.jpg http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/2543/img0980o.jpg http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/1535/img0978yl.jpg

Sorry I made a typing mistake.They are supplied with the correct 20mm spacers for the front.

Spacers for the front wheels are being included in the sale from previous owner. Think he said they are 10mm.

Spec of the wheels.. They are Brock B1 8.5J x 17" , 4 x 100 PCD with 57.1 bore. The fronts have an offset of ET35 with no dish. The rears have an offset of ET13 with a deep dish. Front tyres are Toyo Proxes T1-S 205/40 ZR17. The rear tyres are Toyo Proxes T1-S 215/40 ZR17. Bit of archwork going to be required on the lips as previous owner had occasional rubbing but his car is a lot lower than mine so time will tell really. Cant wait to get them on http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

Well I sold the Borbet wheels and have just bought a set of Brock B1 :) Will add pictures when I fit them next week. <!--url{0}-->

Finally fitted my M3 LSD today. Only took it for a short drive to check for noises but all good as expected Borbets are off for good now and BBS back on. I am on the look out for some more 16`s but it does drive nice on the 15`s thats for sure. Next up is to order the eccentric bolt kit so I can get the new rear beam fitted. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/eko1/IMG_0883.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/eko1/IMG_0885.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/eko1/IMG_0888.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/eko1/IMG_0890.jpg

Thank you for the kind comments. Mandrake I agree with you about the Borbet A style.I have never liked them myself but I do like the dish and as they cost me next to nothing I thought id make some use out of them. I have always liked the look of Brock B1 wheels so am tempted to find a set of those instead and get rid of the Borbet.

Well I decided to paint the wheel centres in Black but as sometimes happens I kind of regret it now. Going to give it a few days,see if they grow on me but not looking good at the moment. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/eko1/IMG_0847.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/eko1/IMG_0837.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/eko1/IMG_0848-Copy.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/eko1/IMG_0854.jpg

Couple of better pics from today.

I thought you guys might like to see what I bought today? Got a phonecall yesterday putting me onto this 325i Sport. Went to view it this morning and left a deposit. Just got back from paying the remainder and collecting it MOT`d for about 6 mths and little bit of TAX too. 114k mileage with service history and old MOT`s. 2 previous owners,last one for 9 years and kept totally standard. Good original spec too with full OBC,maplight mirror,leccy windows and roof etc. Engine/box/LSD are very good. Not sure whats destined for it yet till I get chance to have a good look over it. Unfortunately rust has took hold in the roof and has actually holed the outer skin at the rear Gave it a quick jetwash on my way home as it was pretty dirty. Got loads of spares thrown in with it too including brand new 3pc front and centre sections of exhaust,new exhaust manifold gaskets,drivers door lock repair kit,2 spare 15" caps,3 sets rear lights,nice set of Hella headlights,airbox/AFM and few other bits too.
