    FS/FT ATS Cups. 15 x 7. 4X100 ET20

    Alright so here is the story, I recently got a brand new set of ATS cups for my car from tunershop. The guy said they will fit no problem, I got them and the fronts didn't clear the caliper. I called up and he said that they should fit but try running a small spacer. I ordered up a set of h&r 8mm spacers and extended lugs and they seemed to fit fine. I put my car down off the lift and pulled out, only to hear a god awful scraping noise as soon as I turned. I put my car back up in the air and found out the outer tie rod ends were hitting rubbing inside the wheel. I called up again and he said he has never come across this and basically called me an idiot. So, the wheels would fit an E30 fine with a larger spacers but I don't want to run them. I am selling the wheels, I would also like to trade for something clean like euro weaves and BBS RZ's. They currently have 195/50 Kumho Ecsta's on them. I would like to sell them locally with the tires but I will not ship them with the tires. I paid close to 900$ about two weeks ago for these,I do have the original boxes and all the packing stuff still.

    Price local with tires: $900.00

    Price shipped w/o tires: $800.00

    Front wheel scraped #2


    I am open to offers, I am just trying to recover some the money lost. I am taking a hit based on the fact the inside of the wheel is scraped, It's purely cosmetic. These wheels are no longer being made and ATS is selling the rest of there stock off.

            send them back... that wheel profile won't clear much on an E30 at all. He's the idiot!

              I tried to send them back, dude gave me the run around about how once the tire is mounted on it they can't be returned. On top of two of them being scraped I didn't have a chance. The guy totally fucked me over.

                  Looks like the tie rod joint did the rubbing on the inside of the barrel. I have recently seen this with some of the cheaper tie rods vs. lemforder tie rods.

                  Might want to try a lemforder set of tie rods to see if this fixes the problem. I bet it does...
