BMW E36 Blog

Hi Guys,

I’ve seen many BMW E36 cars with 16", 17" and 18" wheel setups. I personally like the 17" wheels on BMW E36 cars most. The 16" wheels are too small and they don’t give the BMW E36 car the look it deserves, which leaves your car unappreciated. So, If I were to change my wheels, I would either go with the 17" or 18" setups. Now, if you want to go with either of these, you will have to take into account 2 factors that will help you decide:

1. Car’s engine:- If you’re riding a 318is like I do, then go with the 17". You can’t go wrong because, believe it or not, the 18" setup will put a heavy load on your engine and worsen your car’s performance.

2. Car’s suspension:- If you have a little low ride, like me (I have a stock sport suspension), then you can go with either 17" or 18". The trick is just to make sure you will not have any tire rubbing. For me, I have the 17" and they look fantastic on my car. If you have stock suspension, you can go either with 17" or 18". 18" is preferable unless you’re going to give your car a drop soon.

If you decided to go with the 18" and looking to give your car a little drop, you may either go with the 60mm drop or 40mm drop. The 60mm drop will make the car look cool, but it’s going to have tire rubbing (most likely) and it will definitely be a hard ride.

I’ve prepared some E36 pics with 18" wheel setup for you to check them out. Take a look:

Hi Guys,

Mark has made a photo shoot session for his BMW E36 convertible 325i. He was so kind to send me the photos and I really like this car very much, especially with such a great background. Take a look, I hope you like it as much as I do.

Hi Guys,

If you already have a BMW E36 and I’m sure you all do, then what can you do to add more pleasure to your life? I’m sure you asked yourself this question before. The answer is simple, you get a bike 😈 . It’s loud, fast and great looking. Just like a BMW E36! Unfortunately, I’m still unable to get one myself but I hope I will be able to do that in the future. Take a look at these great bikes, I absolutely love each one of them. Do you already have one? Let’s see it?

These are one of the best shots that I’ve ever seen for a BMW E36 in the streets. The car looks great and the background is awesome!. I love it. I just wish that I could get larger versions of these photos to put them as my wallpaper. What do you think? I hope you like them.

Hi all, I found a post on the bimmer forum made by MParallel from the Netherlands. In that post, he took some great photos of the interior of his car at night. I have to say, these photos made me speechless. They’re just great!. Take a look at the CD player, the Phone and the illuminated M3 shift knob. Also take a look at the HIFI switch. This is the first time I see that switch. It seem when you turn it on, it separates the frequencies better and sends a more clear signal to the speakers. Overall, this is one of the best illuminated interiors that I’ve ever seen. What do you guys think? Do you have the HIFI switch?
