Nice... the e36 238i is a legendary car.

My honest opinion is those individual mags do not compliment the e36... They look better on the e46 for a reason, they were designed for it.

I would go for something with multispoke... similar to BBS wheels or the old M5 wheels. They look the best on the e36. Again, only my opinion.

BBS RIM

Maybe a slight drop and a M bumper in front with Lip will make the car look aggressive.

Again, only if you want an aggressive looking car.

sadly its a 316i btw:thumbdo: lol but its awesum
i do have plans but not major(angels, black grills n a few more)... i love the neat look with standard bumpers compared to the agressive look with the drop and m bumper...

 

[Crash_Nemesis]

Why did I think it was a 328i? Probably cause my close friend has one that looks identical, except for the mags...

if its a 316i... leave it as is... :thumbs:

Neat car, leave it as it is, the facelift E36 316 is quite a good car, power wise - not so good, but its not a bad all rounder otherwise. I would definitely choose it over some other 4 cyl models.

Something seems wrong with the profile of the tyres, whats the sizes??

Now take car to deserted road , park , clutch in , select first gear , rev car to 5500 revs , drop clutch . oops 245 wide tyres grab a handful of tar , revs drop to idle and car moves off sedately .Stress on drivetrain is immense .Even the 328i when tested at the reef with standard 15 inch tyres and 17 inch tyres was slower on acceleration and top speed with 17 inch wheels .The 4 cylinder e36 models have good balance and turn in , they have less mass on the front wheels than the 6 cylinder models .IMHO try keep the car with its positives being kept good and do not put too much rubber on the road for instance , how often do you corner that you need the extra grip ?
