hey everyone new to the forum i have just purchased a z4 2003 full bmw service history 59 k , black with beige leather in it semi auto and i love it.

I have a few question for some u guys see if u can answer them i have just bought a set of 19 inch KAHN RSV wheels for it the tyres are 235/35/ 19 and the offset it et 38 they cost me 1600 i was just wonering does anyone know if i can lower it and by how much so it will not rub and wht springs are best for it.

Also i see that the facelift models have no orange indicators on it does the facelift lights fit the older models and the facelift rear lights fit too if so where can i buy them aftermarket

Last point wht do u clean the roof with mine has like green stuuf on it from it been sitting under a tree any good products out there for giving it a good scrub but safe at the same time

I will post some pics once the wheels are on it many thanks s99cmp
 
I'd keep away from the Autoglym. Dried my roof right out and lost the colour slightly. Use this to clean http://www.elitecarcare.co.uk/renovo-soft-top-canvas-cleaner-500ml.php?cPath=55&osCsid=5e36148163f25b3b6771c4638c7d1c40 follwed by this to protect http://www.elitecarcare.co.uk/renovo-soft-top-canvas-ultra-proofer-1-litre.php?cPath=55. Made my roof look new
 
Welcome

Don't forget to post some photos up, before and after the wheels

On the lights - the facelift will not fit the prefacelift without rewiring a new LCM and programming. Nobody does it. You can get 2005 lights prefacelift with clear indicators but they are rarer than hens teeth. Of course you can get them from BMW at around £350 halogen and £750 Xenon (each)

Rear lights simply don't fit as they are a different profile. You would need new wiring a new LCM, programming and a new rear bumper cover. Nobody does it.
 
You can, however, get OEM pre-facelift rear lights with clear indicators, that look pretty good. Clear side repeaters also.
 
Welcome :D
