    Silverstone II BMW E93 convertible by IND

    Our friends and longtime sponsors of your bimmer focused blog, IND-Distribution, are back again with a new project. Despite being friends with them, we’ve always objectively analyzed their work, but they managed to impress each and every time.

    Their previous Dakar Yellow M3 project made waves within the BMW community and showed everyone that “classy and stylish” modding can still be done.

    Today, they are back with their latest Silverstone II BMW E93 convertible project and as usual, we will let them explain the vision behind this new project. As you can see in from their words, passion is needed to create a successful project.


    “Working at IND gives all of us here a unique opportunity- we get to build the car we love over and over again. How many people are fortunate enough to modify beautiful cars for a living? Because offering styling consultation on our Portfolio projects is one of the key components of our Portfolio service, it is critically important for all of us at IND to keep an open mind.


    We have to do a fresh, new look for each car, and ensure that the finished project isn’t just a mass produced modified car, but rather a car that is uniquely our client’s.
    This Silverstone II E93 convertible was built for a client that loves the E93 M3 for it’s versatility, and it’s tasteful looks. He wanted a beautiful M3 that retained it’s high class appeal. To accomodate our client’s desire for a clean and subtle E93, we chose to mold a Vorsteiner Polyurethane front lip to our bumper, removing any sign of the old OEM reflectors along the way.

    Complimenting the classic front lip is the new Challenge rear diffuser, which was also molded to the rear bumper. Nitto Invo tires in 255/30/20 Front and 285/30/20 Rear sit on BBS LM wheels in 20×9.5 Front and 20×10 Rear accent the OEM chrome trim perfectly.
    Instead of choosing to black out everything in sight, IND left the chrome trim well enough alone on this E93, prefferring the bright, clean look it and the BBS LMs offer. Coming soon is an Eisenmann Sport exhaust system, Rogue short shift kit, and BMW Performance shift boot and knob.”

                              IMHO, if u get bigger wheels u simply increase the metal and decrease the rubber, this decreases the comfort of the car (u will feel bumps more than before) but improves handling and in particular steering response and for sure the looks, more metal looks better
                              another downside of big wheels in general is increased weight unless they r from a very light alloy which is definitely more expensive
                              also bigger wheels break easier coz the rubber acts as spring that dissipates part of the energy so a low profile tire provides less protection than a higher profile tire
                              anyway this very general and frankly i donot know whether it applies on "20 in on E93 or E46" but from the pics this is definitely very low profile tires also the figures emphasizes the same 255/20 and 285/20
                              I am the Japanese spy in the BMW club :joking: :D
