I'll take these please!

Followed a rather nice looking purple Z3 on lower road in Halewood yesterday afternoon. Looked like it was on split rims. Are you on here?

I wish they were! They are replicas made by Dare.

Took some better photos over the weekend; I also sold the original style 78 wheels, which in turn freed up some funds for the following; I had an ebay saved search running for an M54B30 - one turned up earlier today, from a breaker I have used many times previously, a quick whatsapp...

Just read through this thread, absolutely fantastic. A friend of mine has recently fitted a built b30 turbo into an e61 - so I have a slight idea about the amount of time effort (and cost) that goes into it. Heres me thinking swapping my b22 for the b30 will be "enough".

After recently changing my wheels, I have a set of 17" Style 78 available. Currently have them on eBay, but will take slightly less for a forum sale. Front; 7.5J Rear; 8.5J Front Tyres - 225/45/17 Avon ZV7, Date Stamp, November 2020 - 5mm tread remaining. Rear Tyres - 245/40/17 Nexen N...

Fantastic, this is just around the corner for me - will be purchasing tickets later!

Wheels arrived earlier this week - had the chance to fit them after work. Thankfully, they don't look too big (in my opinion) - think the lowering and smaller tyre profiles help with that. I went with ET35 in the end as I was advised 42 may not be the best fit - turned out to be very good...

Wheels were replaced this evening. I went for a set of BBS RS replicas in 18" Dare DR RS. I half feared 18" would look too big, but I think with the lower profile tyres and the lowering - it just about pulls it off. Went for Kumho PS72 tyres - I believe they have only recently been released...

Thanks for all the comments. I've ordered a set of 18" Dare DR RS (BBS RS rip-offs) - will see how they go. Went for 8J front, 9.5J rear. ET42. Will be wrapped in a set of newly available Kumho PS72 tyres - I could only find one review from Germany, but they appear to be comparable to the...

Afternoon everyone, I know this question may have been asked multiple times before, but I'm I'm currently in the market for a new set of wheels, I'm on the fence when it comes to either sticking to 17" or going for 18". The car has recently had a set of coilovers fitted and was polybushed...

Hi Stevie, Short term plans are to replace the wheels for something a little more me - Been looking at a set of BBS Replicas (Dare DR RS), with some half decent rubber. Following on from that I mainly plan to enjoy the car over the summer months. Dont get me wrong, the car is full of little...

Do you have any of the caps that cover the bolts securing the dash (next to the windscreen)? Thanks.

Nice find - may I ask what head unit you have?

I have just listed a set of 78 on eBay. Open to offers mind. (F1B-UK)

Friday night after work saw the installation of a set of MTS coilovers, along with a set of rear upper and lower braces and some wheel spacers. My word, what a difference its made - its completely changed the characteristics of the car. The original suspension from 2002 and 155k miles was...

Thought I would start a progress thread for my recently acquired 2002 Z3. Z3's were never on my radar in years past, however, having recently purchased a newer 5 series, it gave me a serious desire for something small, analogue and old school, without breaking the bank. The 5 series is great...

Thanks. Tell me about it - I dread to think how much I've spent on BMWs and BMW parts in the past 10 years. Timing chains on the daily cars.etc.... keep going back for more though, must be Stockholm syndrome, but I wouldnt drive anything else.

That's the plan, he's 2 at the moment, so hes better at breaking things than repairing at the moment. If the car is a keeper, I'm thinking it may be something cool for him to drive when hes older - with the way things are going I cant see many new drivers in 16 years time using a manual gearbox...

Morning, Purchased my first Z3 yesterday. They havent been on my radar for long. I was ideally looking for a 3.0, but my budget was fairly limited. Picked up this 2.2 for just over £2k, which I think was a fair price given the specification. Been a long time BMW fan, had a few e39s in the...
