    *Please* post side shots of your car with details.......

    about tire size, wheel width and suspension set-ups. I'd like to paste them into the tire/wheel sticky to make it more useful. I need your help, guys.

    Edit: I added my car to the sticky so you can get a feel for what I am looking for. The more specs, the better, but I'll take whatever I can get.

    For reference, in case you don't see it: http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...-Wheel-Offsets

    Thanks,
    Terry

    Do you have any static shots, where the car isn't moving? Your pic has the car leaning a bit making the gaps look larger than they probably really are.

    Thanks,
    Terry

    Thanks to everyone, so far. Keep 'em coming. As you can see, I am deleting the posts in this thread once I use them. That makes it easier to keep up on the xfers and where I last left off. Please do not post follow-ups here. Thanks

    Also, I may not use every photo provided. I really prefer side shots to maintain consistency, whenever possible.

    Ok, understood.... fortunately I saved the info I was looking for but for future reference, you never know when someone's reply (that you've already benefited from) could benefit a future member who's looking for similar information.

    Thank you though for the explanation and removing any paranoia I had 5 minutes earlier

    Ricky,

    No problem. Remember, this is just a data collection thread that I use to paste data into the actual Stickie'd Wheel Offset thread. Eventually I will delete this thread, it's just temporary.

    Ok, here are some old photos. I have changed the setup but this may be of use for your thread. I will get some newer photos and upload them soon but it a different setup. So I think both setups will be usefull.

    17x9 DForce LTW5 41 offset E36 wheels, 7mm spacer front, 30mm spacer rear, camber plate set at -2.9 front. Dunlop 255/40x17 Star Spec tires. Bilstein Sport shocks and struts, H&R Sport springs.

    Bump, more cars please! I need a couple more Z3s, both 6s and 1.9s, if possible. Also looking for any wheels that aren't yet represented. Please post a side shot of your car and description.

    Thanks,
    Terry

    I beg to differ... those do not appear to be stock-sized tires (225/45 and 245/40)...

    I wanted to post these pics since I'm only half done, so you can see the comparison better. The front end is still stock while the rear springs have been replaced with Eibach springs (1.5" lowering). The shocks are Bilstein Sports all the way around. Eventually, I will put the rest of the Eibach set on the front. I'll also be correcting the rear camber problem.
