:D Is it 4 or 5 lug, I have a set of 8X16 BMW wheels & am open to trades:Dhttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1265491289.jpg

i would be all over those, but mine are 4 lug. BTW, thats what mine look like now, except 14x6.5.

how do you want for them and where are you, i will keep a look out for you.


still trying to get the wheel bearings out. they are kicking my butt. i got the hub off, no problem, but i have bent my big slide hammer pounding on them. i am afraid i will have to pull the trailing arms and have them pressed out/in. my wife want s to know how much longer the car parts will be in hte freezer.
i had to stop on the car and go back to working on the garage. i go t the shingles on over the weekend. if i get off my butt, i will get a good start on putting up the hardie board this week end.

here are some pics. notice the dirts tracking marks. i took my daughter on a little "ride" when we got home. i ve got no grass, i figured what the heck.

My $400 '88 325 got smashed up two weeks ago, after a 17 year old girl lost control on the interstate and smacked me. The other person's insurance is taking care of it....they totalled it, and cut me a check.

....I'm going to buy the car back

i see your front has some minor damage, but not enough to do that to her car.

Delta velocity was probably about 20mph. The BMW doesn't look bad in that picture, but it's toasted. The front end of the car is shifted over about 3 inches, core support is mangled, and the aluminum front bumper is actually sheered in two right under the headlights.

I used to estimate for State Farm, and when the appraisor came out (a different insurance company) he and I talked about all of the hidden damage.

In case you're interested Grassroots Motorsports did a project E30 Spec car and is a fun read:
