Cage Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 cheers mate, wen i bought the lms they came with the standard bmw centre caps. i got the red ones from a mate of mines, the red caps are originals. but you can find them on ebay, my ones didn't fit. so wot i did woz take centre caps of the original and stuck them on the bmw caps lol. i hpe this helps That's what I have ended up doing. I had some genuine 68mm Red/Gold BBS centre caps, so I removed the badge from it original backing and stuck them to the BMW centre caps I got with the LM reps.

320D_UK Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Hello everyone, bit of a thread resurrection here. I thought that better than posting a new thread on the same topic. I've been lurking for a while but am fairly new to E46Zone. So far looks like a very good forum with lots of useful advice and helpful people. I'm currently considering a set of LMs on a 320d Sport. Although wheels generally look best when the car is lowered, I didn't want to compromise any further on the comfort factor. The standard sport suspension is already pretty bouncy. So I'd like to see some example of 18" LMs on otherwise a standard Sport car please... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deezer-D Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I think Dubya has 18's on his saloon???? I have 19's on mine with sport suspension. Didn't really notice much difference in ride quality, just a bit of tramlining on uneven surfaces but this is probably due to the slightly wider front tyres. I could prob do with getting the alignment chcked too though. 18's in LM reps look a tad small (just my opinion) so I'd say go for the 19's, you'll wish you did if you go for 18's.

320D_UK Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Deezer, do you have any pics of them on your car? Lowered on 19's would be my ideal look but i cant imagine that being comfortable. I drive around London alot and where I live there are plenty of nasty roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deezer-D Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 dribble..... so lush deezer Cheers Mr. D Found another LM thread from 330ci Drop Top. These are on a vert which seem to sit lower anyway so it will give you an idea of what they look like on a lowered motor. Check Cage's car too, the grey vert that's been lowered too http://www.e46zone.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=4432 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
