So...not having as much cash as I'd prefer to have has it's drawbacks. I installed H&R sport springs and Bilsteins on my 535i using money from insurance after the car was hit. I had the 535i rear springs laying around and the springs at the rear of my 323i were too soft- so after cutting the dead coils and moving the lower perch around I ended up with e34 rear springs on my E21. It rides a lot better than it did with whatever strange springs were on the car previously.

I've been sitting on a set of BBS wheels for a year waiting for the right tires to come along. I saw the Avon Tech M500 was on clearance at Tirerack.com so I bought a set. The end result is:

Hey thats my car

Except the black interior.
Are your wheel's 15's?? They look bigger than my 13in BBS.....What's your tire sizing??

It look's good, Do you have any adjustability with your new set-up??

yeah...accidentally posted the wrong link. Had a ratchet stolen the other week then left one in a customer car then bought the one in the previous link.

sexy, you dont see the 323 in that colour often (except boost_me's). the gold bbs's really set it off well...

when i get new tyres for my minilites and get them adjusted i'll post them up on this thread...

My car is adjustable at the rear only- someone cut additional slots on the rear shock housings to slide the collars up and down.

Minilites are for 2002's and rabbits, not E21's! Does look good though!

i really like the height & wheels to suit on imaradiostar's 323, im planning to lower my 323 only an inch at the front so it's level with the rear.

You can't deny the mag-wheel love! I'm looking at getting a set of Bronze 15x7 Panasport FS's. Mmmm... deepdishes.

But I dig those BBS's with the Avon. Good score. How much were they per tire?
