...Notice the dark interior photos. We'll that hides the details pretty good. It was a joint build by two guys but they split up before it was actually road worthy. It checks all the boxes from 20ft. Color, stance, wheels, E46 M3 motor, so it gets lots of attention. We'll see if it breaks $100k.

...people that clearly do not want to be Russians, and these same people now in the White House are shitting in their pants. I am ashamed of our stance. I hate hypocrisy, I hate to lose. Coming from three generations of immigrants caused by Europe's 20th century being a cursed continent, I...

I know right?!!! Can’t stop staring! :D

I love 16" wheels and stance. Just on a car that deserves them! A privilage, not a right and certainly not as a resale stunt!

Good to know about the 16 inch rims and stance

...seen far worse cars with all sorts of lipstick go for more. These cars had sexy write ups and, may I say, 16" wheels. Lots of gushing about stance, etc. and the bidding war was on. That's the market and a little scary about the legs that it has. As horrible as they are (kidding) at least 911...

Best stance of any E9 on 16" RS wheels. Gorgeous!

...swap at the same time 10 years ago. Before that I had the stock springs and shocks. Yesterday I drove a restored CSi with stock suspension and it was NICE. I like my lowered stance but am tired of getting my teeth knocked out on the way to Starbucks. Not to mention the body blows the car...

Excellent, thank you. That’s the sort of thing I’m looking for. I’m going to be fitting Bilstein shock absorbers and E12 M535i front springs to my ‘77 3.0Si.

...suspect, I haven't driven it since I installed them. I have the same plates on the coupe, and they work great for me and my purposes (looks/stance and keeping the wheels away from the front wheel arches) You need to adjust the toe after installing them...

...it isn't. This was the source for my (clearly lame) attempt at a joke about a light front end and low steering effort. Ride height, or "stance" as the cool kids call it, seems to be quite variable on these cars. Something that's to be expected on 45 - 55 year old cars that have been through...

...particular part was a repop or from BMW. luckily he answered. i am quite aware that BMW NA has been a thorn in enthusiasts sides. for instance they have fought like hell to keep e30 M3 owners from being able to buy evo 2 + evo 3 parts, since those models weren't sold in USA. just like...

The poster car for E9 stance. :cool:

I raised the rear shock towers in my 914 by 2" so the car sits lower by that amount but retains full suspension travel and keeps the suspension geometry in it's "sweet spot". The upper shock mount utilizes a captured spherical bearing to allow the shock to move freely (essentially swing) in...

...statements: 1) When at rest, the rear of the car is supported almost totally by the springs, thus the spring rate and spring height set the stance. The force on the shock tower/subframe is negligible as it is only the compression of the shock itself, nothing more. 2) There will be a...

Paul, if I knew how to link to a previous post I would do so. Alas, my computer skills are zero. Do a search on "Stance: Your Vote" and many chimed in with data. In the meantime, I have a front and rear set of Carl Nelson springs, unused, that are available to anyone that wants them to...

You've described Stevehose's setup. Here's a picture I took on the way to Hilton Head: For comparison, here are three coupes with different sized rims. Steve's car is farthest away; 14" Alpina rims and Pirellis as noted. Tom's car in the middle has 16" BBS wheels and Dunlops. My car has...

...My advice is to consider all 3 while deciding what you want. I believe those factors are a) how the rims look with b) the ride height/ stance, but not talked about as much (but to me nearly as important) is c) the look of the tire. I happen to really love the Pirelli CN36 look. The tread...

Markos' advice is right on the money. Find someone who has experience with fitment for the stance crowd. The challenge is likely to be finding a wheel to run without building it to order. Sensible warnings aside, running wheels that may be ideal for show, but not ideal for driving is your...

...lip if the front bounces, say from stabbing brakes or hitting a steep driveway in the process. Hasn't been an issue in any other scenario (so far). I have arch trims so rolling the lips is out, and the stance is just how I like it. Having done it once is enough motivation to avoid doing it again.
