Type of modification on your E90

[izuaff]

just got my 325i sports few days ago and been following this thread. But is just too long to go from page to page.

Any body kind enough to compile all those bodykits in one page?

Arrrrrgh

What do u guys thing of the BMW Type 199's? 19's staggered. A little like the 18's 189's on JPB's car? Eddie has a set in stock going for RM7.8k w/o tyres. Looks easy to clean LOL.

I am with you on the 199's and 189's. I think they are one of the best looking OEM rims in the current E9x lineup. Go for it, and take some photos after they are installed on your ride so that we can drool over them :rock::rock:

Nice but not so fierce looking. I think it matches E90 well, especially with M-Tech Bodykit and blacklines and Sparkling Graphite... whoopsss.... does it sound like your car bro. Hehehe...

 

[AlexNg]

any idea how much 199's costs around here? AB has them?

Stevtan, where did u get your Remus Quad done? How much was it? :top:

with all OEM wheels, you need to add rear spacers to make it flush to the fender.
otherwise the rear doesnt look aggressive at all...

and spacers is the last thing i would do if i had no choice.

lots of wheels vibrate due to spacers. avoid them.

so, go look for a better offset that doesnt require the use of spacers.
ET28-ET30 is ideal on 255/265 rear w/o fender rolling on a 9.5" width wheel NOT 9" width. Most OEM BMW comes in 19' x 9'.

so look for 8.5x19 & 9.5x19 combo for best results.

Fun Jin, I just spoke to some guys from the e90 sing forum. Theyre letting their 189s with RFT's go for approx 2.6k s.dollars. Am contemplating buying a set myself.

Lemme know if youre up for it.... ROOKIE, this goes for you too ! cheers

Wah thats pretty good a deal if the condition of the RFTs are still good. How many sets do they have and does that mean a road trip to SG to pick them up and what are we gonna do with the old set of wheels? heh

 

[Bimmer910]

FJ,
Im still working on it. From what ive gathered, the RFTs are all in excellent condition. The most used being approx 3000kms and the least, UNUSED. SO prices will vary slightly.

Pertaining to the amount of sets available, i think there are 3 at this point. Just a feeler to see who is interested. Im still working on a pair of Breytons as well.

A drive down would be nice no

Eibach 15mm spacer price around RM 530 inclusive of bolt nuts. I have been using it on my ride for sometime (only rear spacers) and having no problem with it. With the spacer, it will make it flush to the fender. I am running on 18" x 8" width front and 9" width rear with 15mm spacers. Tyres are 235/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear.

Golly, it looks very much like the 189s though I can tell the subtle differences. I think the 199s look just as great on the E90. How much ah? You should go for it, like NOW!

I got it from ExoticMods, in Sunway Damansara. Ordered it like 3 months and finally...

I was at Stuttgart yesterday and saw the wheels. It's nice :top: If I am not mistaken it is selling at RM 7,800.00. The one for M-Sport one is selling at RM 6,800.00.

i dont trust spacers, if you have no choice then go for Rogue Engineering ones as these i heard from KL2DC is better than H&R /Eibach...

I was told that these prices are still open for "nego"... So make sure u squeeze them a little more before committing heh. The good thing about them is they might take your OEM wheels and tyres and pay u cash on the spot like what they did with my E46 a few years back. Other shops allow u to leave it there for them to help u sell but u only get back your $$$ when its sold.

I had the same experience for my ex-E46 and thought that quite nice of Stuttgart to help me reduce the price of the new set. I heard they recouped the dosh from an onsale though, which is good but if we do it, this will take time.

Hey JPB, I heard from Freddy Obermaier that they are doing ECU Remap. RM 3,000 for a 20bhp and 20NM increase. Interested ?

By the way, how's your ride after the remap bro bmrocket ? I remember you did the remap too right.

It feels much more responsive n power seems to come in a lot stronger from around 2,000k rpm bro..

But based on my dyno (which i was told differs from machine to machine) i got a 11HP 2NM increase on wheel :dontknow:
