    245s, that must be some serious winter traction!

    those wheels look great on an e46.

      A little wider than I'd prefer but I like those wheels too!  Thanks!

        New summer wheels to come!  Bought these from Kerry and he was nice enough to get them powder coated.  The 4-door is going to look like a 90s Pontiac with the color matched wheels.

                  The rack doctor steering rack we replaced in 2018 blew its seals and was leaking badly. Utilized their lifetime warranty and got a new one.

                  Did an oil and filter change as well as a fuel pump; fuel filter and regulator.  Added e46 M3 RTABs also. All OEM BMW.

                    Trans started slipping so got it replaced with a 94k mile trans out of a 325xi. Got the starter rebuilt, new trans filter/gasket. Tensioner & idler pullies replaced.  New oil filter housing gasket and hood latches.

                    Mike also made the rust dissappear by the rear wheel arches.  Not bad for a napa rattle can!

                    Now we just need some snow!

                    All work done at 212k miles.

                      You take good care of your stuff. E46 are getting old enough that some of them are approaching 1 failed emissions test from the scrap yard. she’s a keeper!

                          Got an engine light for a cylinder 6 misfire.  Popped in some new plugs and swapped the cylinder 5 & 6 coils.  Fault transfered to cylinder #5 so I swapped that coil with a good used one.  Back on the road!  Have a slight coolant leak I'll be hunting down but everything else is great!
