Erm, I think the Text is in the Picture, This is the first time I have uploaded a Picture and I think I got it a little worng, he he.

Please read the text I wrote with the picture.

Regards Bren

 

edited to include, Most of the text is missing so I will rewrite it.

My Car appears to be a similar colour to yours so will hopefully give you a good before / after comparison,

I bought it with these wheels fitted and I was told that they are Genuine E46 Alloys, They are 19" and they had to fit four front wheels to the E36 as the E46 Rear Wheels are too wide for the E36 Shape.

Regards Bren

Here is a pic of my E36 325i on 17" Schnitzer Type 1's. They are an older style alloy but well suited to E36's I think.

Now these look really good and they suit the E36. IMO 17" is the optimum size interms of style for the E36 not to mention handling.

The wheels look really nice mate, Sometimes new style wheels can look weird but they look like they belong.

MV2's do look good, but those AC Type 1's just suit down to the ground.  IMO 17's do look the most suited, anything bigger just looks out of place and a bit "Max Power"

Hi, Thanks, Yes it is Original BMW, I Believe It is called Techno Violet. It is quite a rare colour I am told, But as this is my First endeavour into BMW's I am quite gullable when people tell me things.

I have replica EVO2's - similar to ady's - look good, only 17" so the ride is comfortable and whole lot inc tyres £460 - major saving on originals! (I've still got a couple of old Motorsport M3 wheels and tyres if anyone wants to make an offer!!)
