Schwaben Wheel Storage Options
Schwaben products are characterized by simple, clever designs. Their wheel storage solutions may be the best examples of these qualities. The Schwaben Wheel Tree holds up to 275lbs and allows you to safely stack your wheels without the risk of scuffing and scratching. Convenient locking casters allow you to easily move the whole set anywhere in your garage or shop at one time. And when saving floor space is the highest priority, the Schwaben Wall-Mounted Wheel Rack allows you to securely store up to four 11½" wide wheels and tires against the wall, away from your work space.
Turner E9X M3 TrackSport Rotors
Extended periods of aggressive driving causes the amount of heat in the rotors to build up, & as the temperature of the rotors increase, the metal begins to expand. With solid rotors, this can lead to numerous issues such as warping of the rotors, unexpected cracking along the inner "ring" or friction surfaces, & increased brake fade. Turner's TrackSport rotors feature a full floating two-piece design & slotted grooves to allow smooth, consistent braking force & easy expulsion of gases & dust created by the brake pads & rotors under heavy braking.
New Turner E46 ABS High Kick Trunk Spoiler

Constructed from impact and UV resistant ABS plastic, this light and durable spoiler provides a sporty style that's sure to set your vehicle apart from the rest, without high price of an equivalent carbon fiber spoiler.

Turner Adjustable Camber/Caster Plates - E46 M3
The perfect camber plate when you're looking for race performance with street comfort! In the past when you would have to choose the best application for your needs you were left with two choices, polyurethane with a softer ride and deflection or a solid mounted spherical bearing with no deflection and added NVH. The Turner hybrid camber plates use the polyurethane ring around the spherical bearing so you reduce the NVH and deflection leaving you with nothing but benefits instead of sacrifice.

Unlock the full potential of your BMW build with the Turner Motorsport Transmission Swap Flywheel Kit, a simple solution for mating a modern N54 or N55 gearbox to your legendary M20, M5X, or S5X engine. By utilizing a dual-geometry flywheel, this kit allows you to keep your stock starter on the engine side while using the factory clutch and throw-out bearing from your donor transmission for a perfect, headache-free fit. We�ve even included a precision drill guide to help you effortlessly align the top bellhousing bolts and a universal pilot bearing pin to ensure a seamless install. It�s never been easier to modernize your drivetrain with a smooth and factory-like shifting feel with a largely increased power capacity.
Top Lifting Products
The most important part of working on your car is doing it safely. Lifting, supporting, and lowering your car with the right equipment is paramount. Schwaben has a low profile, heavy duty, easy to use lifting products designed to safely and quickly raise and lower even the most slammed cars around.
New E30 / E34 Driveshaft Center Support Carrier
The factory center support carrier features an internal bushing constructed from soft, pliable rubber. While this provides a smooth and quiet ride for standard driving, it falls short in performance-oriented applications where durability and precision are critical. During acceleration, shifting, and under load, the rubber bushing's inherent flexibility allows for excessive driveshaft movement. Over time, repeated stress and wear on the rubber will cause bushing failure, risking poor driveshaft alignment and efficiency. In extreme cases, this failure will cause a constant rotational "clunking" noise, a clear indicator of impending failure. The ECS Tuning Center Support Bearing Brace is designed to enhance the performance and longevity of your drivetrain. To improve upon the factory design, and to create a performance alternative, our engineers started by designing a set of exact-fit, split low durometer rubber bushings that clamp around your existing driveshaft bearing. Crafted from 30A durometer rubber, our material choice effectively eliminates bushing deflection without causing an increase in noise, vibration, and harshness. By eliminating deflection, this design ensures a longer lifespan than the stock center support bearing, making it a great investment for enthusiasts looking to maintain their aging BMW chassis.
Getting Your Car Out Of Storage Checklist
If your car has been unused for a few weeks, a few months, or has been in storage since last fall, there is a checklist of maintenance services you need to run through before your car may be ready to drive. Pulling your car from storage can be an easy and rewarding experience, and might save you some headaches down the road. Here is everything you need to make sure your car is ready to go back to work when you are.
