Back with new pics

It's been a long while since I've posted any new pics. But here's the 430 with the same 20" Lorinser Lm1 style rims; but dropped 35mm, with an Eisenmann race exhaust. and a Rieger kit. Coming up next, a new audio system and a chip.

Looks good, I was looking at this kit also before I got my RS kit but I didn't like the front and rear..to much for me. But everyone has their own opinion still looks nice Reminds me of my car when I had my 20"s..

What width are the rims? Tire size? Any mods to make the rims fit right and not rub? Looks great, I have same wheels in 18 inch.

Thanks. I got these springs called Voigtland... Rims do not rub. 20 x 8.5 all around. 235/35/20's in the front... 245's rear. Fender rolling was necessary though.

How much was the fender rolling and did you have to get it done all around? Were the springs necessary to not rub? How does it ride on the highway or anywhere for that matter? Where did you get the rims and how much? Im wanting to do the same to mine!!

Fender rolling was $70 for the left/right front fenders. Well the springs are from the same company that makes Bilstein shocks I believe according to TWS. I got it all done at TWS in Walnut, CA. The 310 license plate was given to me by my girlfriend. Highway ride is ok, but I need to get new shocks as well. The rims, I don't remember where I got them from; maybe Ebay? I've had the rims so long in the car but it almost looked like an SUV when I didn't it wasn't dropped.
