04-13-2011, 07:35 AM
Just orderd my new engine mount from bmw, wish i bought it before the VAT increase as its nearly double the price now :(
Also im after some advice the new wheels ive got are 18x8.5J ET 15and i have four turns on my coilys left and wish to use them :D but im unsure on what tyre to fit!
Ive been told 205/40/18?
Anonymoose
04-13-2011, 07:53 AM
Depends if you're gonna run them at et15 or with spacers? 205 is a mild stretch and will be fine unless your gonna space the shit out of them. Gay VAT!
Joshbm
04-13-2011, 08:06 AM
i doubt ill need spacers on the front as the trail fit they was poking already lol
Jorge
04-13-2011, 08:13 AM
Looking at my 195s on the 8s. I'd get 195s to be honest, but in saying that, camskill don't stock them so the thinnest you can go is 205/40s.
Joshbm
04-13-2011, 08:26 AM
so 195/40/18?
I might try mytyres.co.uk
Anonymoose
04-13-2011, 08:29 AM
8.5j ET15 won't poke and you won't need stretch :)
Joshbm
04-13-2011, 08:32 AM
8.5j ET15 won't poke and you won't need stretch :)
Engine craddel should be on this weekend so i can gewt the front wheel back on and jack the side up (wing in proper postion) and ill take pics.
Jorge
04-13-2011, 08:34 AM
My car in the latest pictures is 8J ET15, and it is tucking...
I can't see they make any 18" tyres in 195 size?
Joshbm
04-13-2011, 08:41 AM
ill think ill go for 205/40/18 falkens
Anonymoose
04-13-2011, 08:44 AM
and spacers front and def back
Joshbm
04-14-2011, 06:19 AM

Ill deff need my arches rolled then!

Might be because she ordered me a top mount instead of an engine mount LOL
Joshbm
04-18-2011, 07:08 AM
So i test fitted a wheels that had a complete arch lol and this was the result...Doubt i will need spacers up front.

Depends what you're going for but it will tuck when you lower the car, jacked doesn't mean jack :)
Can't wait to see the wheels on! One of my fav oem wheels for sure
Joshbm
04-18-2011, 07:15 AM
Yeah, was discussing that factor with Jorge on my FB. I want the edge just poking slightly, if i can it would go tyre arch lip :D
Anonymoose
04-18-2011, 07:22 AM
Cool, good job so far! You'll find it hard to get the arch in between the tyre and lip coz tyre sizes for an 8.5 = not much exposed lip but I think a 5mm spacer and you'll be nice and flush
Joshbm
04-18-2011, 09:28 AM
sweet, know where i can get longer bolts and spacers?
Anonymoose
04-18-2011, 09:53 AM
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=e46+spacers&hl=en&tbs=p_ord:p&tbm=shop&ei=A1CsTcGRKsa38gOKtOS4Ag&start=10&sa=N
pick your price and go for it, 5mm will be fine using your standard lugs and won't be hubcentric, 13mm is the smallest hubcentric spacer as far as I know
edit: don't get the shim type ones at the start, try ebay aswell, anyone that stocks spacers should have bolts aswell :)
Jorge
04-18-2011, 11:44 AM
AC do a 7mm hubcentric spacer, full set on ebay at the minute ;)

Hubcentrics only start at 13mm as it's impossible to have a hubcentric lip on anything less than the hub lip if you know what I mean, these increase the centre bore foooo. Not to mention they're £120+

Joshbm

TBF 13mm is only a 1.3cm extra poke really isint it? which means theyll prob sit just right with tyres and sitting low.

1 year 2months and 17days, can you tell ive been asked that a few times lol cheers but ima being paying a bodyshop to wrap it.
See you Sunday asshole! :alright
Cant wait :) you need to text me your postcode!

03-08-2012, 05:03 AM
Was this really worth the year wait? Why not just break and buy another, could have been in this position 12 months earlier no?
Joshbm
03-08-2012, 05:16 AM
Why would i wana just give up on it, only took so long because of lazyness weather and waiting in other people. Also didnt plan for the gead gasket to go 2months ago.
Youve proper turnt into a grinch! Always negative man!
Jorge
03-08-2012, 05:19 AM
Not being negative, just asking if it was worth it? I understand if it something other than a silver 323...?
When are you going to roll the arches?
Joshbm
03-08-2012, 05:33 AM
But its not just a silver 323, Csl boot red interior both would have ment selling just to afford another bmw, worth the wait imo...
Sunday :) may also fit front RPM adjustable top mounts too if we have time :)
Jorge
03-08-2012, 05:34 AM
Should get time for that, top mounts are fairly easy on the E46, specially as you've had the bolts all off before! Is it front or rear?

We took the adjuster and rubber mount out the rears and wound the front all the way down, the only thing needed to go lowwer is some smaller drop links :( and we didnt have time to fit the front adjustable top mounts :(
Shes slowly getting there, couple more pics of it now lowwer :D Excuse shitty phone pics!

Those wheels look great on your car! I was looking for a clean set like that, but then settled with Style 5's. I don't think my Hellrot 323ci could pull them off anyways.
