I think there’s a new 1 series! Too bad we don’t get that here in US

Looks pretty cool, I'd swap the silver mirror caps for black as your first mod, would look way better with the colour accents. Haven't seen this colour in the flesh in Australia yet.

And now with a new suspension setup (finetuned rebound) and height, the car drives as intended.

118i with 135 exhaust conversion - didn’t think the spacers would make a difference but very pleased with the result. Keeping these wheels on for now
Looking at the images again makes me want to lower it even more.. 25/30 isn’t enough Last edited by klomarx; 12-29-2025 at 05:53 AM.. |

Why did you switch to a M135 exhaust and not a different manufacturer like Remus? More sound and looks better.

As for the exhaust, my mates upgraded their m135i exhaust and has given me the stock exhaust box and pipes from their m135i for free. - Increased sound and tiny throatiness, but not as throaty as custom exhaust / backbox delete. I do like the tone though, it sounds less tamed but still subtle. I prefer OEM+ Last edited by klomarx; 12-29-2025 at 10:23 AM.. |

Wheel upgrade recommendations for my BMW F40 Melbourne Red
I bought this used car at the end of last year and have been driving it for about six months now.
I still feel happy every time I see it, but I’m thinking about upgrading the wheels to give it a fuller, more aggressive look. Without removing the Chrome Window Molding, any recommendations for wheel brands, sizes, or ET values that would work well with Melbourne Red? Thank's everyone.

I’m looking to upgrade the wheels on my F40, and I’m wondering what’s the absolute limit for this chassis. I’ve seen plenty of 18" and 19" setups, but I’m tempted to go for 20 inch wheels.
Does anyone here run 20s? If so, could you share your specs? |

I'd suggest you aim for 8.5J x 20" ET45+ with 235/30 tire.
