    Interesting, but would they clear FC RX-7 calipers? That's what I would like to know. I have a sneaking suspicion they don't and that the path i planned on taking. :/

    PM SENT!

    How much of a savings are they considering?

    BTW: sales rep said, 531's clears front stock calipers.

    Hard to say for sure since it looks like they haven't shipped any yet...

    Yes sir, stock brakes.

    Sometimes these types of wheels don't clear brake calipers without some spacers.

    I would tend to agree that this exact wheel spec and tire size is absolutely perfect. Beautiful e30 BTW....fat and flush FTW!

    Why are the offsets 'gay'? 16x8 et20 is absolutely perfect.




    Exactly...

    16x8 et20 with 225.45.16 is literally perfect and it's the exact same rolling diameter as stock. I really want a set of these... My old E30 had this spec wheel/tire and looks perfect.

    Nice! That's exactly what I'm looking to run actually although I would do 225/45/16's if they'll fit.

    Has anyone actually received these wheels yet or still waiting on the pre order?

    What do you guys think is the biggest tire size you could run, front and rear, on these wheels with minor fender rolling?

    I just bought a nice e30 with a 1.5 inch drop and an s50 swap and I might be looking to put more rubber under the back end.

    I was considering the idea of having some CCW's made up but like most, I don't really feel like coughing up $2500. I love CCW's......but I must admit that I do like these cheapies

    edit: It looks like 16x8 et20 is about perfect to fit some 225/45/16's! Nice!

    You will need hub rings to mount the 73.1 hub bore to the 57.1 hub on your car. I bought tuner lugs from Ryan Castro on this forum he can help you with that. Great service just search tuner lugs and you will find him.
