Challenge - F30 335 Project Car - Installed H&R Springs and BBS CH wheels - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Just last week we finally got around to installing some H&R Super Sport springs and a set of BBS CH wheels on Bridgestone RE-11 tires. Black painted sport grills and whiskers as well as painted relectors are also installed. We'll remove the plate mount and maybe shave the markers soon. Here are a few shots of her as she sits now!

Is the plate mount glued on or drilled in?

Its bolted, but leaves holes. We'll have to fill them. Mostly only launch cars had these ugly warts

Maz335i · 05-06-2012, 02:42 PM

Sorry, but what do u mean by black painted whiskers? I got the grills and reflectors but forgot what the whiskers were?

:

Car looks great!

Maz335i · 05-06-2012, 02:57 PM

Got it!

The whiskers are right beside the fog lights...

onehungevo · 05-06-2012, 06:07 PM

Can you post a side shot with the steering wheel straight. Does the front seem to set a littler higher than the back?

onehungevo · 05-06-2012, 06:08 PM

What size rims and tires are you running?

Looks great with the improved stance and BBS wheels!

longtran@ltbmw · 05-07-2012, 01:44 AM

Very clean. Cannot go wrong with BBS wheels.

DrivenByE30 · 05-07-2012, 08:42 AM

F30 Done Right ! Congrats ! Should i say perfect Mods for the F30: YES !

PeaceHawk · 05-07-2012, 09:34 AM

When you put H&R springs,suspensions doesnt get out from guarantee?
And also is there any damage to suspension system(to change from confort to sport mode)?Since the springs are lower than normal?
Thanks

As with nearly every BMW ive seen on oem or aftermarket springs, the front is a tad higher. I'll see if i have any good straight on side pics.

The car is on BBS CH in 19x8.5 +35 front and 19x9.5 +40 rear. Tires are 225 front and 255 rear. Front fitment is pretty close to E90 3 series but the rear has a bit less room

onehungevo · 05-07-2012, 01:38 PM

Thanks. Your car looks great.

There is only an amber bulb in the housing.

happy187 · 05-08-2012, 03:58 PM

looks amazing. seems to fix the only thing I don't like about the new 3, the wheels. Every factory set looks like crap to me.

mkPOTO · 05-08-2012, 04:03 PM

looks good greg!

positiveions · 05-08-2012, 04:03 PM

that wheel is a classic. Looks tight

M3_WC · 05-08-2012, 04:07 PM

Like the E90 it needs the M-tech kit.

Prissy · 05-08-2012, 04:08 PM
