There's no way @GAVz96 is a real person. Man trolling us all hard 💀

@Spanky - 🤣🤣🤣 I’ll take it as a compliment, but on a more serious note, everything everyone has warned me about is starting to happen, replace/repair one thing, next thing goes, as I’m fixing oil leaks new ones appear, my mechanic has even told me that no matter how much time and effort I put into the car it’s just going to be a money pit.

So time for plan B.

Is the problem with the car or the mechanic?

I mean, you can only do so much until it should in theory be fixed. It should not be a constant thing of shit just randomly breaking.

@Teezoh - well he’s definitely a better mechanic than some of my previous ones, but yeah it’s a good question as to why things keep going bad 🤷🏻‍♂️ I don’t know if it’s just a bad buy, or a bad mechanic. When he replaced my radiator he changed it to one without the plastic housings on the sides, so would hope he’s looking after my best interests 😅

@Teezoh - I’m guessing that means mechanic 👀😂

How many mechs has this poor girl been passed around to? No wonder she's leaking from everywhere all the time...

Howsit All.

Happy New Year, hope all is going well, has anyone got some advice as to where I can get some rims for the E90, wanted to keep the original size mags which are 5/120 16” but they seem to be a bit hard to come by, is it worth going to 18” on the 320i and does it affect the handling much?

Thanks in advance.

 

[Greenz]

What's your budget?

I'd honestly just throw on a set of oem 17/18s.I don't have faith in the cheaper reps.

 

[Urban963]

A different car would come with different rims. That' what I would do if I were you.

 

[GAVz96]

@Greenz - budget is a bit tight right now, was hoping to keep it just under R10k, but if it comes to 17” or 18” the most I can probably squeeze is about R12k 😅🤦🏻‍♂️

 

[GAVz96]

@Urban963 - Just looking for rims bro not another car yet 😂 unless you got one I can finance 👀😂

Sure, you can buy mine.

 

[GAVz96]

@Urban963 - I’m sure it’s like only R500k or so 😂😂😂👀
