Looks like you wheels will be a staggered setup. I'm I right? What are they?

double staggered Borbet type Bs

the thing is , i doubt it'll fit in the rear without flares. and i really don't know about the flares part....

16x7 et30
17*10 et20

i saw one of my friends e30s, he has 17*9.5 et35 and it fit perfect. so mine will be poking out a lot it seems

everybody is telling me different things man. i have someone local who told me he would swap out his 3.73 for my 2.93. but then when people told me that 3.73 would be too high i told him that it was a no go. i just messaged him if he was still down to do the trade, hopefully it goes through.

i mean regardless the car is going to spin no matter what we do.

I have an excel spreadsheet I created to determine speed vs rpm. You can input gear ratios and tire diameters to determine which rear end is best.

I am using a 3.73 and expect to be at 2,000 @ 70 mph. If you want I can email you the sheet.

My car's still not on the road yet so I can't say. I have probably a week of solid work to get it drive-able.

We are getting close. So close!

I have two lists I could work from -
1. the list that gets it driving
2. the lists that gets it done

The first list is tune, alignment, seats and belts
The second list is, looming the wiring, installing dash, strip sound deadening, install 4pt cage, paint interior, fix TOB leak, tune, alignment, Seats and belts

Then to put the condor bushings in.
