hi,
anyone know if this e32 interior on ebay will fit my car (at the top). Ebay ref:4566591519. I have heard that e32 front seats are fine & that the backs go but get a bit scrunched up. cheers paul |

Don't rush to change those metrics. I think those
weels are the some of the nicest you can get for the E34, the deep dish really suits the car. I've stuck with mine and while, the tyres are not cheap but they will last for a number of years, I am 4 years into mine and still pleanty of tread. I have no complaints either regarding wet weather handling. |

thanks darren.
don,what is the deal with metric wheels anyway,are the tyres much more expensive ?These are in excellent condition(wheels & tyres). I may change them to the ones on my existing 520 which I will probably sell anyway. this is my existing car with the wheels mentioned on :    |

Nice looking car m8 But i have got to agree with Don those metrics you have on your new car really are some of the best looking for the e34 , better infact then the e34 sport metrics, and i think a lot better than the ones you have at the moment, personaly id keep them. AS for the interior have a look at this: M5 Memory leather Edited by b8alk |

yep,
i think I will keep the metric wheels,they look a lot more classy than my others. I think the difference is my 520 needed tweaking to make it look any good but this doesnt. thanks for your comments paul |

Yep, keep the metrics - I prefer them on mine and I've got 8 spare in the shed, which I won off EBay - cost me £11 in total !!!

I don't think you will regret it Paul. There is a lot to be
said for keeping a car as nice as yours genuine. Another bonus to those metrics is the sturdy shoulder on the tyres, it is virtally impossible to kerb the alloys. Mine are 10 years old and blemish free. |
