3 Piece Schnitzer Reps (Pic Heavy)

[nickflic3]

So I'm in the process of re-doing these with the hopes of running them on my car some time in the near future. (btw what color should I do??)

With my tons of free time, I get bored and decided to do a "soft test fit" if you will... No adapters yet but I used some random bolts and cardboard to simulate the 20mm or so gap.

Some need more work than others... 17x8.5





Results: (excuse my crappy paint; shall be remedied soon enough)











Couldn't compress the rear all the way; about an inch left before it would be at static height.





Fun with an 18" Nascar tire



LOL





Current state:



Legit for being reps... They say nicole on the back instead of oz/ac schnitzer

Not on poll but I think gun metal grey looks awesome with polished lips...

nogaro centers

[reelizmpro]

Love these...I say all polished or chrome or silver center with polish lip.

[jp_slick]

I vote rob

[noE30]

Polished imo.

[nickflic3]

Now that I've seen them roughly on the car I kind of like the polished/chrome center

Love these...I say all polished or chrome or silver center with polish lip.

I was thinking of painting the car silver. Nogaro centers would look good too

Long time no update

My buddy A.J. hooked it up with some used tires, Continentals and Khumos. Which ones are grippier and how would you run them?

All fitment is 225/45/17

Fitment with Continentals





Got the Khumos the other day





Need to finish sanding already!! :firehop:

[Herr Faust Schinken]

Black or dark grey centers would look so cool

[reelizmpro]

tires are way too large. 215/40

I'm leaning towards dark grey/nogaro

hmm I'll have to see. My buddy gets these for free as pull offs at the local car dealer, this is the closest size he could get (VW's)

I need a job>adapters lol

[Herr Faust Schinken]

Do it!!!

[lambo]

What's the final offset with adapters?

[nickflic3]

Not sure as I still need the money to acquire them. I was thinking to try and source 18mm adapters for the fronts though

18mm is the smallest you can run for adapters I believe.

1+ for polished lips and gunmetal face.

215/40/17 Front 235/40/17 rear

Free is always nice so run what you got til you can afford proper size tires.
