I am updating my M3E30 and I want to put a new spoiler on. Anybody have any suggestions. Also, where can I get DTM side mirrors? Any ideas on different wheel sizes other than stock. I have heard 17" is ideal, though you can go 19"?

I can get you the DTM Carbon fiber mirrors for around $225 in vented or Non-vented let me know ASAP, I'm placing my order from Germany this week.

Spoiler, get the E3 unit with the CF DTM flap.

19" wheels looks ridiculous on an E30 M3. There is a picture of a Zinno M3 somewhere on the internet with a guy running them. He lives in Mexico. Other than his wheels its a damn clean car.

Anyway, I think 16" is ideal for the E30 M3. My opinion though.

17's look plenty big on an E30 IMHO.

I took some pictures of the car with 19" wheels a few years ago. The car was turned into a track car, so these wheels didn't stay on very long.

most all the m3 guys in the US rock 17's. they fit the car perfect. 17x8 all around on 235 rubber.

What Shahe said, 17x8 wheels ET38 offset with 18mm spacers. 235/40/17 tires and it fits perfect!

Sorry for those that I agitated about the suggestion of the 19", it was just a simple idea.

I have decided to go with 17"'s. but I cannot decide on what kind. Too many choices, and not one that really appears better than the other.

I do have some more pressing issues. I am updating the seating in my E30M3, and am wondering if anyone knows how to wire in power seats. After having it for six years, and driven the hell out of it, I want some creature comforts as I continue to drive it. Though, the seats, are out of a 98 M3. Can't spoil the heritage.

I also have a locking problem, especially the passenger side. It has been repaired several times and yet is still unresolved.

As well as, my front spoiler is cracked, from being torn off, and I really need to replace it, but am having trouble finding a new one. Any help out there?

Thanks
Mark
