Love the camber on the back wheels.

Looks nice. Bit different from all the facelift ones.

My flattie recently bought a 325i Motorsport... quite a cool car really, although I don't find it a particularly exciting car to punt around the twisties, much more at home on the open road. Love the sound the sixes make when they're revving as well.

Not to cause offense or anything but I'm bored of E30's slammed on big modern wheels - someone needs to take a leaf from the Euro guys book and dump one on some smaller, mega dished rims....

This one's mild.... mmm love it!

Image
Gorgeous!

Is the camber on the rear such a good thing though? I imagine a camber correction kit would improved handling and tyre wear.... I assume the camber you're running is simply a by-product of lowering the IRS rear end?

Keep it in good nick and don't end up ruining it by making it rough like a good percentage of the modded ones around these parts!
