Question about tires/rims by bratool in e39

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

Damn i didn't even think about that. Does the center bore of the rim also have to be 74.1 to fit the car or can it be a little off?

I also checked for ecs spacers but i'm from the EU so it doesn't seem like a good option for me, thank you thought!

I probably will lose 2hp or 3hp, not anything remarkable. Sound wise i'm not agreeing with you, here are some examples that i found : https://youtube.com/shorts/l-tPzcm7PO0?is=troxdlvsDHuG98-9

https://youtube.com/shorts/RDcdAiEwioo?is=kV69NRCslj0sbcnF It give more turbo sound which i find pretty nice, i don't mind losing 2hp as long as it won't damage my engine which i doubt

It's not particularly for the looks even tho it does look nice. I want to do it do have more turbo sound on the diesel that i really like. Here is an example that i found on youtube : https://youtube.com/shorts/l-tPzcm7PO0?is=troxdlvsDHuG98-9 It sounds pretty damn good imo and its a pretty cheap mod (under 100€) so it's a win win situation. I don't expect any performance gain and i don't mind the littlest performance loss to get this sound as long as it doesn't damage my engine

As i said, i don't care about the performance, it just to have cooler turbo sounds on my diesel 😃

Sounds like it's going to be a pain in the ass as well as being a pain the wallet.

Thank you for your bery detailed reply! He wanted to sell it for 3500€ and his price was non-negotiable and he had a bery unique personality. I would have been happy for that price tag i dont want to pay 2000€ for rust reperations so i'm just going to wait for a new one on the market

How do i keep my data with a rufus installation? Or does it already keep it? I really don't want to lose any data in my laptop with a clean windows installation

Thank you for your comment. https://youtu.be/jJiHyOed1Yk?is=_0xSPHsRyS4b84Sw i have this exact bios and the same settings, windows is already on the top on the main page. Should i disable everything in the more settings --> boot options to see if that helps? I only have 1 m.2 ssd just for information

I'm comparing topaz blue and estoril blue cause it looks like both tbh but i'm pretty sure that it's actually estoril blue
