Try using http://www.tirerack.com and match up the numbers or you could call a BMW dealer too.

What would be the best tyres to put on a bmw z3 with z4 for wheels.?

by Reed on December 12, 2009

I don’t want to spend a fortune, but require a tyre that will give me more stability in the rain and will feel smoother when driving.
Someone has suggested uni-royals. I would be geatful of any sugestions.
Many thanks

Just buy the tires that the BMW fitted it to originally. Pirelli is a good brand. There are many kinds of Pirelli, try their "Z" rated tires

How do you get the hood of a 97 Bmw Z3 roadster up?

by Reed on December 9, 2009

We can get the hood up enough to feel the latch but it is like something snapped. You can press it down all day. I need to get under there and fix my radiator. If you know any idea as to how to get it off or open please advise. Thank you!

should be a hood release in the passenger compartment. If this does not get it up and seems to work, have someone pull and hold and the try banging the hood with your fist to see if you can get it to release enough to get to the safety catch. If this does not work you will need to ge to the catch from under the car. You may need a mechanic to do this. I assume you have this up before and it used to work?
