        Oh my, that looks bad ass!

        Are all E46 wheels high offset? I've always thought BMW wheels were mostly low offset (under ET30).

          All but the M3's have workable offsets 38+

          I soon realised that the constant banging sound of drive shaft on chassis rail wasn't much fun,a chassis notch cured that problem so i lowered it even further.

                  I run a 215/40 up front(205/40 next time) and a 225/40 at the rear.


                  Got bored of the anni skirts so laid my hands on some R32 skirts,got them sprayed and fitted them at home.We fitted them a little higher than they come from the factory,this resulted in the bottom of the skirts flaring out and looks pretty damm cool

                          Getting sick of cleaning the throttle body every now and then so next up was an oil catch tank,i ordered this from the US and promtly fitted it









                          This came out of the tank on the first drain....................no wonder the throttle body needs cleaning.

                            It's quite amazing how much crap you do get in your catch can set up. Puts a smile on my face everytime I think of how much crap I'm keeping out of my motor

                              Shockingly all that crap reduces the octane of your fuel.


                              A bit more suspension tweaking had it sat like this









                              And a few pics of mine and my buddy Pat's awesome car(the guy that takes the photo's).
