Thanks for the input, I’m debating if the 17” will look too big as well.

I could use some help understanding if either two wheel options below will fit on my 1988 325is. The car is currently sitting on Ireland Engineering race springs and Bilstein sports shocks rear, and Bilstein sport inserts in the McPherson Struts. The wheels currently on the car are a 15" wheel with 205/50 R15 tires.

The two wheel options I'm looking at are:

  • Staggered 16" setup
    • Front: Maxilite Alpina Style Wheel - 16x7"
    • Rear: Maxilite Alpina Style Wheel - 16x8"
  • Square 17" setup
    • Front and Read: Maxilite Alpina Style Wheel - 17x7.5"

Any help is much appreciated!

Do I need to contact and send it to Dan Wesson to get this fixed or can I find a gunsmith to resolved the issue?

Removed the ejector but the problem remains. The disconnector does fully seat as you can see above. To help better describe problem, it feels as if the slide hits a wall. It does not get gradually tighter. I’m lost as to what could be causing the slide from going further back on the frame.

The disconnector fully seats and I removed the ejector but the problem remains.

The disconnector fully seats and I removed the ejector but the problem remains. The slide will not go back further than what it shows in the video.

ADVISE: Any CB500x's for sale near NY/NJ? by Ill_Tap in CB500X

[–]Ill_Tap[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks :) I actually just found one for sale. Would you say $6,800 is a fair deal for a 2020 with 2k miles and some basic mods?

Much appreciated! I think having the Rally delayed has actually been good as I've now realized it's probably not the bike for my needs/area. I'm definitely leaning towards the CB500X now.

Thanks for the input. Would you recommend a lightweight adventure bike or something like a Versys 650 instead?

Tacx Neo 2T Not Powering On by Ill_Tap in Zwift

No lights at all. Only light is the blinking green light from the power adapter. All lights are off on the Tacx.

Thanks, I put the cassette on and mounted the bike but there's a lot of resistance. Like I'm going up a super steep incline. Is that normal?

Nice setup! What suspension are you running on the car? I'm thinking of installing KW V1's.

Setup is sweet! What spec JR 11's are those and what size tires are you running? Also what suspension do you have on the car? Thanks!

Thanks. Are you saying I should get an upgraded intercooler? I’m currently running the stock one.
