I demand to see launches!

This really helps with my work schedule. I don't have to brake into any corners.

The wheel set ups are 18x8 Et47 with 285s up front and 18x8.5 et50 255s in the rear.
The story is Bimmer Bob (?) did an experiment to try and counter act the understeer the e46 chassis by putting big rubber up front. These were modified Evo wheels machined to an e46 set up.
The seller said the car would get squirrely in the rear under hard braking.
I wanted some quality wheels that could work on the m3 down the line.

I hope it doesn't rain while you've got those on! I still demand a launch video.

Got these mounted, 255x35x18, on all 4 corners. Don't grip like the slicks but I'm not wrestling the wheel down rough roads anymore.

Got a cylinder #5 misfire so I bought a new coil and OEM plugs. Plugs were previously replaced at 100k. Just turned 170k.

How hard is it to install new lenses?
Pretty, pretty, pretty easy

17" wheels mounted today!
Running the old snow tires for now but I'll be swapping over the blizzaks I was running on the M3 2 years ago.

Went to the Dells this weekend for an indoor 24/7 softball tournament.
The Temps were pretty low outside.
On the way back in go to check the oil and notice it's higher than normal. In my head I'm like "here we go" as I reach over to check the oil cap and of course, a little bit of some baby diarrhea.
Drove it all the way home (Milwaukee) from the dells is no issue. Temp stayed rock solid but I was going easy on her.
I'll take a look at it today maybe it fixed itself.
In the meantime one can dream:
