15x5 fronts, 15x15 rears, stock BMW I beam suspension front and stock BMW/Ford narrowed 9in . M10 stroked and V8'd to 502in with a 14/71 making 100psi. Been running nitro but not too cost friendly on the street. Goes 1 million mph in the 1/4 mile and blows ladies clothes off.

Looking to do a 5 speed conversion for better cruising.

Hello guys!

Maybe this is a wrong topic but let`s try...

8.5x16" ET 12

Going to use 205/40/16 tires + Air suspension. (Universal air aero sport front airbags + SS-5 on the rear. )

I'm trying to find the lowest position and i think it`s perfect right now. How do you think?

Anyone running a 15x7 with a 165/45r15 ? I just got hold of a set of RS001 for my 2002 and was looking at running some stretched tyres so I could lower it some more.

These are going on a golf yellow 2002 so they will be painted a nice silver colour to complement it.

I'm running that tire size on 15x6.5. you're going to need a pretty aggressive drop to close the gap. I'm still working on that....

Hi Elias,

I'm running 195/45's on my 001's (15x7 front, 15x8 rear) - i looked into 165 but the drop required on coilovers was pretty large (as chefdog said) so I went with the 195's. They filled out the guards nicely i found but every man has a different style!

Also - are you Sydney based? I think i saw your car in a video from The Lowdown (?) meet up there?? You're no doubt aware cops love defecting anything thats low, has big wheels and a stretch tyre however mild it is!

Set it off the coasters and let us see it on the ground please! Not everyone's cup of tea but I admire the work needed to pull this off.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
