Re: 1988 635 - kinda scam victim here.. but still ok

I agree with GRNSHRK, the shadowline is perfect =D> . I think, I'll do that for mine sooner or later as well, the grey color I have already :lol:

Re: Location.

Well, taking advantage of this post, is there by any chance someone in this forum from or around El Paso, TX? Just asking, since I'm kind of the only one from northern Mexico, but from the most northern border to the US (to be precise, just across the "mighty" Rio Grande :lol: ) Just check...

Yep, they are 8", I'm running on 225/50 R16 Kumho's and I'm very pleased with ride. Since I'm hardly driving any faster than 80mph, the handling and performance is quite OK for me.

Re: Style 5 Rims 16x8 ET 23

Well, this last weekend I've put on my tires on the new (used) rims and they look nice as expected. \:D/
I also did add the 1/4" spacers in the front wheels only, even though they did not seem to rub or anything, but it looked kind of right at the edge :roll: .

My shop tech. has just added it to my sixer and it works very well. If it fails, I'm just back to a non-working A/C #-o , but so far it's freezing cool. \:D/

OK, here I go again hoping someone can help me out with my ignorance when it comes to A/C leaks and gas types.

Re: Style 5 Rims 16x8 ET 23

Are these a direct swap without any modifications such as spacers for example? I understand these are BMW made rims and should fit one of their models, just want to make sure...thanks for any input.

Currently I'm using Kumho's and I'm happy with their performance.

Just wondering what you guys think about this? Based on his way of promoting himself, Trump seems to be unlikely, but then again so was the Brexit :shock: I as an outsider, still wonder how a country of +300 million people could end up with 2 candidates of such a questionable "quality". [-...
