What are the specs on those wheels and tires? Ie., size, width, offset.

 

Hartge Classic II, 9x20 and 10x20 running 245/30-20 and 285/25-20. ET18 front and ET22 rear.

 

Two weeks into owning her and I am obsessed.

 

My winter setup - Sportline wheels 18x8.5 size ET 35mm with Dunlop Winter Sport M3 tires 245-45-18

 

It sure as HEEEEELL does! My car needs some body work and a new fender. It's no where near enough but I did contemplate the opportunity to redo the whole car in that beautiful blood red.

 

Nice, really nice. I'd like to see a photo purely as side elevation and not distorted. Do you have any? With that tire size yours isn't lowered at all right?
Is that wheel a replica or bmw oem?

It's funny how different colors look together. Your wheels look so perfect with the car color. I like "bright" silver wheels with silver and grey cars.

 

No suspension drop, no rubbing. Sportline is the US brand who makes these wheels - really light weight - got them through modbargains site. The wheel model was "CS.16 CSL Style"

Here you go - side shot with a phone cam:

 

 

Nice rare colour!

Did you drive it on the Ring too? I can't imagine a 523 wagon would be quick around that track?

 

Of course, you can't have the sticker if not.

The car is not ideal for the ring, but it was just for fun. I also think the car is quicker than the driver...

Here's a little film I made from the trip if you're interested: https://vimeo.com/66104642
