Picked up new E34, a couple Q's (long)

Okee dokee. How do I put a sig pic on? I guess I could probably figure it out myself. Until I do, here's the new member of our family:

Good colour combo

Those are 99% LTW replica wheels.. they don't have the writing on them.

Thanks, I like the color as well. My wife (it's really her car) would have chosen differently, as well as chosen a manual, but the car was being sold by some good friends for a great price, and we needed a car, so we couldn't be picky.

Yeah, the writing isn't there, but I have seen these wheels on an M3 without the writing on them. This page:

shows them as style 24 and they have no writing.

check the backside of the wheel for BMW part # and ET offset. you will see spacers if any. I've heard from many that using more than 10mm spacer is not good for the wheel bearings/hub.

use of the camber plate may compensate for a bent strut.

love that color !!!
