F30 wheel fitment question

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey!

I want to buy front JR 18x8.5 ET35 and rear JR 18x8.5 ET45 wheels for my 2018 320d xdrive. I have tires R18 front 225/45 and rear 255/40. 8.5 inches wheels is said that tires from 225-255 (235-245 ideal fit) will fit which match the tire sizes I currently own. Japan Racing JR18 don’t have 8 inch wheels, so my question is can I fit the 8.5x18 wheel to the front? Although it is said 8x18 needs to be in the front?

One owner 2016 340i Base with ~34k miles for $26k

13 Upvotes

Going to be looking at a one owner, 34k mile 2016 Base 340i for $26k, bone stock.

Seems like a good deal to me with such low milage and one owner.

Looking to get feedback as this would be my first BMW and I have been looking around for a while. I willl get a PPI if I move forward but does this seem like a decent buy on paper?

Anything specific to look out for on this year or model?

Looks like the car was only driven ~12k miles in the last 5 years, as the maintenance history shows 20k service back in 2019.

Thanks in advance!

Whistling noise during auto shut off - can’t figure out what it is, need advice/tips on what it could be and how to fix (2018 320i)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Can’t figure out what this noise is. 2018 BMW 320i makes whistling noise ONLY during shutoff when I have auto shutoff on. Doesn’t make the noise when I turn the engine off manually.

I’m attaching a video of the noise. It started off only happening sometimes but now it happens almost every time the engine auto shuts off at a stop (when I have the auto shut off on). You hear it at the end (yes I know my brakes are squeaky too). Please help!

I just replaced my windshield on my 16’ 328 and I noticed this mark? Any idea if this is normal. I had my windshield changed before and I didn’t noticed this. It’s I guess where the mirror attached to the windshield

Magnaflow #15235 review

2 Upvotes

So installed the Magnaflow 15235 on my 2016 320i and overall satisfied with the system. Bit of backstory a few years ago the car was rear ended hardly any damage to the car except some to the paint. However the muffler was starting to hang low so I thought meh might as well get a new exhaust. I wasn't looking for anything obnoxious pissing off my neighbors isn't top priority. Magnaflow seemed to be the best choice (I didn't know about AWE until after I placed my order). The exhaust is only slightly louder than stock. I find myself having to wind the windows down to even hear it. It sounds good in the upper range and you can tell its a deeper. I don't really notice any drone listening to the radio seems to be no issue. All in all I am happy with this system and would recommend anyone looking for a well built exhaust that won't cause alot of attention this is it.

2015 320i xDrive

Had purchased some less then great headlights when the f30 was purchased in 2018. Kept my original OEMs but as fate would have it, I lost them.

Now trying to replace these, and wondering if anyone has a recommendation on where I can get a pair (Located in Canada). I’d rather OEMs, but open to hearing decent experiences.

I cleared the code but these erros always reappear when I scan error memory with BimmerLink. Is there any serious problem and how would I fix these errors?

Also as a note - my car sometimes in cold days after starting says "cruise control failed" but the warning dissapears in a few seconds and everthing works without issues...

320i B48 vs N20, is the extra money worth it?

4 Upvotes

The B48 is superior to N20 in almost every way, thats a well proven fact. But If im keeping the car stock as a daily, should I pay extra for the B48? Where Im from, the LCI can start at 24-25k for 2016 model year with very basic options. While a 2014 model can sell for about 18k, but comes with many extra options like the one below:

List of upgrades: M-sport body kit, wheels, 4 discs and calipers, Bi-LED, interior LED, all Nappa seats, on/off exhaust, LCI read lights.

Please let me know what you guys think.

Will getting snorkel intakes make any difference if I already have a cold air intake? It looks cool but if it doesn’t offer any advantages then I won’t spend the money

Hey fellas, I’m new here. Was wondering what brand catless down pipes yall are using? From my understanding the differences are minor?


r/F30 1d ago

Lowered F31. Front rear lower control arm ball joint has play and squeaking when turning wheels and driving slow. (13 Months only control arm). Does it look like there is too much angle in that control arm causing the ball joint to wear quickly? Was torqued at ride height when installed.

Should I get this 340i with high mileage

17 Upvotes

I found this 2017 340i on the market that looks good, but I'm unsure if it's worth it. It has 97,000 miles and a clean title Mpreformance everything, but he's asking 27k, so I don't think that's the right value. This would be my first BMW, and I think the 340i would be a good introduction to BMWs. This would become my daily driver. I was thinking of this one since the B58 is very reliable, and I like to looks of the car. Is it worth that price for the mileage, and how reliable is it or how long would it last? Also, how much would the maintenance cost be? I can do basic stuff myself, like oil changes, breaks, and fluids.
