Hubcentric rings aren't 'spacers' per se. They don't change the wheel offset. All they do is center the wheel on the hub. Practically any BMW five lug wheel will fit, but some have extreme offsets that WOULD require spacers. The normal offset for an E24 is 20-25. I'm running E36 fitment Beyern whee...

If you can find a shipping consolidator, there's a car in Dallas TX that was pretty nice but is now sitting outside a body shop with no wheels. I knew the owner of the body shop and he said he did a pile of work to the guy and the owner did not show up to pay him. It had electric recaro seats and I ...

I checked on the car today and ran the motor. The noise from the engine sounds a lot like a timing chain rattle so I have a question (or two) Are timing chain single or double row? Do they have a risk of breaking? Worldpac shows that 3 chain tensioners, do they all need replacing? If guides need rep...

Thanks guys, E34 V8's should be around in junk yards so I'll take a look around and see what's on offer if I can't sort out my brakes. If I can find a re-build kit, I'd rebuild them myself.
