    I'm still interested in these if they are 15mm or 10mm

      They are 15mm. I just want to test them first before I send them out to trusting individuals such as Q-ship and yourself. Once they are fitted and tested, I'll let everyone know the price including shipping, according to zipcode. I'm in the midwest, so shipping shouldn't be a big diff between coasts. I'll keep everyone posted on the progress. I can easily put a couple hundred miles into testing these. Sould only take me a day or two of hard driving/highway driving.

        That's a nice way of saying Aaron found a better way to do this!:D Glad this is working out, for you guys that are thinking of using spacers + centering rings, this is a much better way of doing it.

        Looking forward to seeing the final product! Thanks again Aaron.

          My guy will have the material in this friday for the spacers. We'll get the test fit prolly by next friday. I'll push him to get those done so we can get this rolling.

                I saw them tonight...

                He has the first set near ready. That first set being test ready. I need to know from all interested parties what hub bore your loking into. I.E. original BMW being 56.1mm, my hub bore for the rotas being 67.1mm, and q-ship's possibly being 73mm, for our specific rims. Basically, let me know what the hub bore for your new rims will be, and he will get the shoulder turned to your specs. I'll have mine on and tested by Saturday by the latest. Help me here, and all I'll need after that is your zip in order to ship them to you.

                TIA

                  e30 hub is 57.1-hope that's a typo! :p
                  and q-ship's possibly being 73mm,
                  I sent you a PM Aaron-I'm definitely in for this. The other wheels took a dump.

                  Thanks again!

                      Whoops...heh heh...yeah. That's definately a typo. 57.1 is the hub bore. I had been drinking a li'l(<not a typo just a flat out lie, I had been drinking alot) and I even had my buddy proofread it. Sorry if I had caused any nervousness with you fellers.

                        QUOTE]

                        So Groupie is set 73.1 wheel bore. Q-ship is down for 73 wheel bore. My wheels are 67.1 wheel bore. All I need now BMW2ner are your specs, and you other fellas' zips so I can get shipping prices. I should have them cut and shipped b4 Saturday. As long as you get back to me by then.

                        BMW2ner: If you need more time to pay for these, just get me your specs and I'll hold them until you are ready.

                              Ignore the messy work bench pleaz...Also, the pic of the spacer on the hub makes it look as if the lug pattern is off. I promise its just the pic.
