im looking to buy new rims. the car is stock height, and currently has 17" stock alloys. there seems to be at least 3 inches of fender gap, but im not sure what size exactly i should be looking at. will 19"s be too big? also, with larger than stock rims will i need thin tires or do i use normal?

2003 330xi, no sport package, no run flat option.

my best friend's dad died on saturday night, just a few minutes after i last talked to him (friend). the story that i heard sounds like it was an extremely traumatic experience for the family. i've been calling his phone all day to try and talk to him, and sent 2 text messages saying "so sorry, let me know if you need anything, call me" etc. i drove by earlier and he was sitting outside smoking a cig, but didnt see me and i didnt want to stop because his whole street was full of cars belonging to his extended family.

im worried about the kid. hes 20, doesnt have the best life ever, and this is the last thing he needs right now. should i keep trying to contact him or let him just spend time with his family until i see him on Wednesday at the wake.

i will be riding around 100 miles per week on paved roads and paths. i dont want to spend over $400.

- male, 6 ft tall, 32" inseam.

- has to be geared. 10/21 i dont care

everything i have seen at sporting goods stores and walmart/target are too small and crappy quality. and everything i see at local bike shops is extremely expensive and high tech.. all i want is a decent quality bike, not something that costs as much as my car. im riding the local paths not the tour de france.

help me out please?

i need to write a 1 and 1/2 page letter to anyone and about anything by tomorrow, however i have massive writers block right now.

there were no further instructions, its really open ended and my professor doesn't care what its about.

please help me, just throw out any ideas you get, no matter how lame they are. thank you

On monday i noticed my left nut was slightly sore when i stood in certain positions, and when i was walking. Specifically when my weight was shifted to my left leg. Didnt think much of it, i figured i slept on it or something.

Fast forward to today. I am on vacation in puerto rico, and after sitting in a cramped 6 hour plane ride, and a few miles of walking... I can hardly move my legs without pain in the same spot. It also seems to hurt right along my waist or "pubic area" on the left directly above the left testicle.

There is no pain when i touch it, and everything feels/looks normal.

I dont have access to a doctor for another week.

looking to add an exhaust kit and possibly some other modifications to my '03 330xi, i am in love with how the Dinan exhausts sound, but would like more than a few horsepower added if im going to spend some decent money on modifications.

if you had, say... $2000 to put anything you wanted on a stock e46, what would you do?

also, how much would it cost to buy a complete exhaust kit (cheap - expensive)? where do i buy it from? is it easy enough to install myself (bolt on) or would i need to pay someone to install it for me? how many hours would it take a mechanic?

thanks
