Z3 - RDSport + Style 5s = CLASSIC

[spine911]

It's done......

BBS RC 090 Style 5s on a Z3.

RDSport Springs dropped 1.5inch on all 4s.

Overall, it gave the Z the timeless/classic roadster appeal.

Old School

[TexaZ3]

I like it a lot!

[amancuso]

Are the fronts sticking out? Other than that, nice!

[spine911]

I like it a lot!

Thanks.
Looking forward in the possibilty of moving to Tx.

Are the fronts sticking out? Other than that, nice!

do they look like it??...lol.

if i drop it further - the front tires would actually flush perfectly....besides, all cars have the front wheel stick out a bit from factory specs.

[Jeremy]

Looks pretty good. Nicely done!

[LooRob]

They look GREAT!!! Good job. What offsets, wheel dimensions, tire sizes are you running to make them fit that well?

[GB5416]

They looks great with white. Not a bad fit either.

^et20s on all 4s....standard e39 RC090....Yes, there is no need for the "Uber-rare" et41s; i wouldn't want to lose the priceless extra front lip depth

Front tires are 205/45/17.*- minimal stretch as shown on the pic.

*Keep in mind that tire specs are quite relative depending on the tire brand; some tires are more rounded as opposed to squared.

[Kyle Anderson]

Damn, you beat me to it

Looks awesome! You also answered my tire size question

What size rim width's and rear tyre size?, I didn't think that lower ET would go on the rear!, looks great though

Sorry, just noticed it's a narrow body 1.9 so disreguard the above.......

[Z3RO 2 6T]

Not bad at all, must be fun to clean them

et20s would flush with the right tire size....think of it as freebie spacers.

im actually contemplating on switching to coilovers.

tires are staggered, didn't want to go skinny on all corners...

Only way you're going to get 8 inch wide et20 wheels flush up front is with stretching tires or a good amount of camber

[Joemamaman]

Looks awsome! Very nice setup. It pokes a little, but that amount is fine, and you did good getting the narrower tire. Looks tit's man.

Did you do any sort of camber correction? or just simply installed springs only?

-Joe.

[pangsterZ3]

looks very nice!!

springs only...possible coilover switch later.

if you are contemplating on increasing negative camber; a set of inexpensive strut shims will do the trick-washer method; if you can't swap top hats (1.9).

looks very nice!!

thanks

[Joemamaman]

I dunno if I missed it... but what size tires are on the rear?

I'm assuming you're not running any spacers right? ( in rear).

Love that setup... and the taller tire in the rear for the slight rake. Very nice.

[FlippedZ3]

How's the springs?

225/45/17 rears
no spacers

How's the springs?

im very pleased with RDSports-318ti rated springs; good match with my stock OEM shocks...not harsh, feels like stock.

[IgotBMW]

Looks awesome.

Have you tried changing the outter door handles to white to match the body?

[QuestMCoupe]

Nice and clean!

PS: why would you want to move to Texas from SoCal? It's awesome out there!

[jajou318]

Awesome.

[hexagone]

swap your front hats for an extra bit of 'flushness'

but other than that, very nice.

thanks.

i actually like the black door handles, i also changed out the door handle seals to fresh ones since the original handle seals are already cracking.

Nice and clean!

im getting tired of the great socal weather

swap your front hats for an extra bit of 'flushness'

but other than that, very nice.

i just might do that....if i end up not liking my front custom flares.



Thanks guys!

[Bear Grylls]

soooooo clean
