More wheels
Ordered a few sets of chrome wires, bit nerve racking as its a lot of money if they don't fit. However fears were unfounded as they fit really well. Centre lock hubs with a peg type drive, much better than the old style splines, triple eared spinners are the finishing touch.
Yyres 205/65x15 and the suspension lowered by 30mm. Lowing the suspension causes the top of the wheel to tip in slightly at the top. I was of course allowing for this otherwise it might have been a bit tight :whistle: https://i.ibb.co/xXnhNct/IMG-3566.jpg https://i.ibb.co/xXnhNct/IMG-3566.jpg https://i.ibb.co/QbJZPxq/IMG-3569.jpg and they also fit https://i.ibb.co/GFKQJQM/IMG-3553.jpg Next job is the dash which I'm really not looking forward too but all mocked up on the bench https://i.ibb.co/pyGn8c7/IMG-0670.jpg |
Nice wheels but your lawn needs watering...
|
I've only got a push mower and a watering can
|
Looks great! 7" wide rims?
|
6", couldn't get 7" to fit without modifying the rear axle which I wanted to avoid. The 6" rim looks right, it also leaves the tyre overhanging slightly which protects the rim from kerbing.

Morning Steve , car looks well , really like the colour :wink: , Geoff .
|
It's the only colour to go for!
I have just picked up a 3.0 which is a very pale blue and I might paint it in the BMW colour to save having to paint the shuts. |
It looks fantastic cant wait to see how you get on with the dash, thats my next task when I can afford it I'm waiting to see whal Grassbank come up with.

I bought another 250swb from Chris last year that was going to be built with my son as a reward for getting a first from uni but he got a job up in Scotland.
This needs to be started and also want to get back on the Z3 Daytona project as well. Also working on the RS Daytona, have an oil leak from the front timing cover, book says 33hours to fix! No peace for the wicked. |
