Good bargains in Hondas to be had these days it seems!

I'm pretty happy with it just needs a new back box and a front lip. Honda parts are dirt cheap to if they're second hand plenty to be had

Hate when this happens, I buy expensive genuine bbs wheels. Then i swap back to my oem bmw wheels and I think they look better??
Maybe I'm wrong but i suddenly think so!

GvidoR

How about a pic with the other wheels so we can compare?

YbFocus

Good idea. .

I'm even more certain now!

power pants

dont think the bbs suits the car at all, wrong colour and age of car doesnt make it a good look imo

The original alloys makes the car look a lot fresher and cleaner even if they are far too small

The BBS need to be a lighter colour to work. They just look dirty in that pic. Style wise they're not a million miles apart.

I was thinking about getting them powder coating then back to oem colours.
The darkness isn't helped by being in the shade late in the evening either.
The lips stand out much more than that but the centres are an anthracite colour.

Thanks osi

If the BBS wheels were silver, they would look better, I think. The OEM wheels seem a little small.

YbFocus

Thanks man,

Yeah I'll try going oem on the wheels i reckon and see.

Just a spray can job and then move to powder coating if it looks right!

MV2's aren't too bad on the E36. Are you trying to stick with E36 wheels though? If so, something along the lines of M3 Evo wheels would be nice.

I'd be going for Sunflowers or the original Motorsports on an E36 Myself, BBS are nice and all but they're too....."basic" for such a sporty looking car.

I know how well the evo wheels look alright
I'm trying to stay with them more retro looking classic wheels though.
Wouldn't fancy mv's though!

Waaaah so many opinions

And then there's me, with 14 inch steelies on the Golf and 15 inch steelies on the Astra. :pac:

Look the business imo, will brighten up the appearance of the car, those BBS are too dark for your paint coulour.

YbFocus

Wouldn't be my first choice man but they are nice, a set of sunflowers would be the first call!

Yep, can't go wrong with Sunflowers, Motorsports or Contours, whichever is your preference.

Stopped at the traffic lights and was greeted with this ominous sight! The next nervous kilometer thankfully passed uneventfully!

No worries

My main intention was to wish him well with the move tbh if he was moving rather then being nosey.

A bit of both tbh. Moving my stuff home, going on the casino for me next leg between Burgos and Leon for 10 days and then just gonna float around until mid July. Moving in with the fiancé then. Big changes and thanks for the well wishes

GvidoR

I offer 2 boxes for the 525.
