abt rim

[ryan]

loveE3series,

First, i would like to welcome you to our forum! Cheers and hope to see you at the next meetup...regardless of what you drive!

I can't answer you on the 1st and 2nd question..

3. It really depends on what part it is, and where you get the part. On comparison..BMW parts are relatively more expensive than Japanese parts. Labour at dealership is also higher than external workshops..so i guess you have to be really more specific!

I hope you also zong the toto this thursday...share the good news ok! :wavey:

Re: abt rim

Bro, welcome to the forum. Just to share my 2 cents......

those hamann rim 18 inch r they heavy?? 10kg per rim? on 318 or 320 arent they heavy for these two ???

I'd think an honest word on the usage of Hamann has to err on the aesthetic side. The weight of those Hamann rims - be them 18" or 19", HMIIs or PGIIs - is definitely not the unique selling point. In this regard, the question might put the key selling feature of the Hamann wheels in the wrong focus. If weight is the main concern, you might not wanna look at the Hamann range, and instead skew to, say, the BBS RC/RK range.

is the spare parts for 3 series exp???

Depends on which parts you are talking about, and where you install or replace them. For instance, if you are referring to parts manufactured in Germany, then your purchasing power is in the helms of the Euro currency. If you are refer to other parts homogenous to other makes (such as tyres, filters, spark plugs), there is no difference to a Japanese car. Of course, as with other makes, installing or replacing these parts in PML and external workshops will make a drastic difference in pricing.

Cheers
