Yeah thats why I demand any wheel/tire place to use my torque wrench. In my experience all the shops over tighten the lugs. I used to own BC Racing HB-29 wheels on my Audi S5. Loved the look and quality. Looking forward to the pics.

Ok I just cleaned up calipers and about to put new wheels on front, but I cannot for the life of me find the torque spec anywhere in the manual. Uh...

Edit: called dealership, they said 80 ft/lbs..(which they obviously don't follow lol)

Man torque specs always seem so low to me, scary low... I did 88 lbs.

Time for the rears!

Thank you, I think the weight is 20lbs & change, I should have weighed before I put on but I read that somewhere. PYSpeed.com can you answer the weight?

BIG difference from the stock 403m's I took off, I think those are 29lbs and change.

Price for the set hovers around $4k

As promised

So the face of the wheel appears flush, not the tread line which is good for me, I think it looks nice and obviously wider than stock

Bedista · 05-31-2015, 04:44 PM

thanks! really like the finish yo got there!

Thank you, yeah I think I really love them

Currently trying to decide if I want to replace the springs on the garage floor myself or pay a shop to do it... Might be nice to save $1k on labor that can go to other mods. But I have not done suspension work in about 10 years lol ( I was a mechanic in another life )

CalCarNut · 06-01-2015, 06:36 PM

I want those mats and foot pedals now. Thanks a lot

CalCarNut · 06-01-2015, 06:37 PM

Stupid questions...will those fit the F36? Guessing should be a no-brainer......

You're welcome!

I think it enhances the floor area for sure.

F30 underpinnings on the F36..should be fine..but i'll confirm. I really like your set up bro! (damn you to hell..my wallet is feeling lighter already) lol

New wheels and tires sitting in garage also, need to get them mounted so I can install. Also sitting in garage are the front lip kit (matte black) and rear spoiler (color matched). Not sure I can install those two, how do people do the spoilers when you have to bend (push) into place and get the tape right first time, crazy.

Side note, what do other peeps do with parts they take off?

If you have the 'extra' space..keep em. If not...guessing the for sale market here is hoppin'

Thank you sir! I am (lucky?) enough to have no wife or kids so "extra" income is easier to waste lol. But I do love this car

CalCarNut · 06-02-2015, 12:31 AM

Market for everything I'm sure it all sells.
