Well not my cup of tea but as long as you're happy. Not sure but the carton says "hub size 78.1mm." I don't think that's the correct size. Maybe someone can confirm this?

Around here (Cali) there are a lot of cars with 24's. It's only a matter of time before someone decides to raise a Bimmer! But I guess anyone on this board has more common sense than that. Thanks for the laugh...that is once I got over the shock!!

OK. Lets see if I got this straight. You sold the wheels off of your E39 because you want to sell your auto E39 for a manual E39 and you brought a E34. Did you sell your red E34 or do you still have it or am I late?

where do you get the boxes? I may need to ship some wheels and I've been trying to find out somewhere to get some boxes at a decent price

Red E34 was sold a year ago after i bought the E39. Both cars were auto and the first and last auto's i will ever own. The new Alpine E34 is a 525 5 speed in great condition! I am going to drive it around for a bit sell the E39 and maybe get another E39 manual......or who knows what else....down the road.

Try calling around to any local wheel shops in your area.....they are always throwing out boxes....you can more than likely get them for free like i did!:D

Sorry, but where did you get the M-Parallels that were on the old e34? Man those are hot. . . I probably won't be able to resist getting some for too long.

The E34 is sechs...Good find.

I have the automatic blues also. I am contemplating selling and getting a manual.Doooo eeeet! Auto gets boring after a while, and it's hard to connect with your car during spirited driving....imo.


those are my dream wheels.....They were mine......i am sad that they are gone but i do feel that my taste is changing a little......i have some good ideas brewing as far as the new E34 goes.:buttrock

I would have to say that the E39, E34 along with some of the older 3 series are still one of my favorite body styles. They just have so much character....and manual is the way to go!

+1!!

That's why when I sold my E34 for the E39 it HAD to be a manual. It wasn't my first choice in interior colors (tan), but it is a sport package w/Style 5's so I can live with that! :redspot

Ralph good luck with the E34, I loved mine.. If you need stock springs (E34), owner's manual, amber corners, etc., I have 'em.. shameless plug.... ;)
