Congrats on the purchase! The paint looks to be in very good condition with no signs of rust at all.

Thanks for all the comments. Does anyone know if 550i sport wheels will fit?

Ol'6erGuy · #6 (**permalink**) 02-13-2007, 05:42 PM

It depends on the hub size and offset. Hub size will tell you if you need hub-centric rings to make the fit. Offset will tell you if there are any clearance problems. Check out the wheels section.

thank you, i have decided on the wheel when it comes time to get them.

I figured out my question by decoding the vin.

Nice purchase

Get new wheels asap, looks like you are running on metrics, those things aren't good.

Cheers,
Iain

Thanks. Unfortunately they are metric. I was think of getting the 5 spoke mille miglia wheels for it.

Heres a couple of cheap simple mods i plan on doing.

Anyone know how to adjust the doors because my passenger one is saggin pretty bad and its real hard to close.

Congrats on your purchase. I know it's personal taste but dechroming the grill and the yellow lights look wrong. As for tips on adjusting your doors check out the bigcoupe forums.

Speaking of the Vin, here is a very useful website for you: www.realoem.com. By putting in your last seven letters/numbers of your Vin, it will tell you a lot about your car right down to the production mo/yr. As far as I know, it works with all BMW's including euros.

Nice Delphin Metallic car! Or so it appears in the pics. I have a HEAVILY modded 87 BMW 635csi 5-speed myself.

Feel free to give me a call or email anytime you want to talk cars, or need help.
