reedoor:
right, Melodies is really near. use to hang out at the caltex area pretty often. nice place. nice highway too......
Jerman: thanks!
Angelicdemon: Thanks, Not really, Interior is really stock , fabric interior, except for the headunit, Mtech II steering and AC Schnitzer replica pedals..
need to hide them with black window tint
525i:
Rubbing:
Not when going straight fast or slow, or going on low or highspeed corners
But since the car is so low, they REALLY rub when:
[TAKE NOTE: ONLY Because it's pretty low now. or else, it should not happen. so don't worry if you're planning to widen the track]
-Fronts: Turning into a uphill driveway, so you have to point the car into an angle and drive striaght up, if not, the bumpers will get some
-Fronts: I discovered yesterday that they rub even when taking downhill corners at Gentings
-Fronts:
-Rears: When you go over uneven roads at speeds (but pretty rarely)
I've rolled the rear fenders. But not the front. will be doing them soon. so it'll solve the probs.
Handling:
The car feels good and it feels more planted. But what's also important is it looks better.
Spacers:
They are aluminium, with hubcentric rings.
They slot onto the hub sandwiched by the wheels bolted on with custom new bolts. longer bolts actually.
i use to use bolts from Mercedes cars for my 12mm spacers on my E30 as they're longer than BMWs. I'm not sure if they can take 15mm spacers. but i bought new bolts for the E34.
Supafly:
Yes, only the rear. haven't done the front yet..
I must. i've kind of damaged my front fenders a little already.
Anakin:
They're alright.. I went to them because i know them and because i wanted coilovers. If you want something more high performing and higher quality and much more convincing, i suggest you go for the more popular brands like Bilsteins or things like that.
Titans are not dirt cheap either.
andy:
You did?
What time? what were you driving? were you in a Silver E46 coupe with the ACS wing and tailpipe? wanted to say hi to you but i was on the phone waiting for directions..
Thanks
If you were, that's a tasteful one you have.

it cost me RM400 for them. of course, the E30 is 4 lugs.
One significant point you should note is the center bore of the wheel you're fitting on. the spacer has to to sit into the hub with precision and the wheel's center hole has to sit into the the spacer's hubcentric ring as precise as well. or there will be vibrations at high speeds.
Andy: will see you again someday

Tom, nice car you have there. Too bad I missed the sale of your rear lights. By the way, how much did it cost you to install the Titans? Had them in my ex-E36. And how much was the drop? Am thinking of dropping my ride....
