Am on two minds what to do. I like how my car handles on the 19" wheels and the hks hypermax coilovers, but now im not gonna be drifting or drag racing anymore i dont really need them on it.

So whether to sell them and go back to standard comfy suspension and some 19" wheels that doesnt stick out of the arches.

Or get some arch flares and keep it as it is.

It may not seem a dilemma but to me it is,lol.

I'm no expert but I have some mates that do a fair bit of drifting in BMWs.

 

Ask yourself how you would feel when getting the occasional bash to you wheels or arches as you can't be perfect all the time.

Thats one of the problems, my tyres DO catch the arches over bumps.

If carmad can do a set off arches at the right price then maybe a solution :-).

 

But still the ride is rock hard, not comfy at all,lol.(i must be getting old)

 

The wheels are for a toyota and there offset is different to nissan so fit much further out.

Well ive finally decided its time to change the suspension and wheels

Want the comfort back, so unfortunatley this means the wheels need to go too.

 

So if anyone wants to do a deal on some standard suspension and some 18" deep dish wheels let me know.

what coilovers do you have and surely the ride is only stiff you can ajust it of am i being thick cas if the ride is going to be stiff with all coilovers i dont want but if you can ajust then i do?

They are hks hypermax coilovers. Yeah they can be adjusted, but still not to the softness of a standard ride.

Ive got problems with my lower spine and a harsh ride is doing me no good.

Its a real shame because i love the way it looks and holds the road but needs must.

Coilovers are about 5yr old and wheels are about 6yrold.

Havent got any pics of the coilovers. There are fully adjustable, the locking rings are a big battered from being adjusted without the correct tool.

Would need some standard suspension with any sale deal to replace them with. Would probably be looking somewhere around £300+standard suspension.

These were £2800 new

 

 

Wheels i could do for £395. These were £2000 new.

 

Welcome to come look first, try them on yours before hand and see if you like them when on.

can you buy new looking rings and for that money are the compoments made from stainless steel.

 

Dont know and dont know. But hks arent cheap.
