    Pfff - I've seen them for a set of 4, mint, for $125, $200 and at most $250 on CL in the last 6 months. Not redrilled of course. There was a guy on here buying them up and getting them redrilled to turn a profit at a good price - I might just buy a set from him.

          Floridas gotta be the worst place in the united states to find cheap shit. There's NO junkyards around with e30's, there's no pick n pulls, nobody sells shit on craigslist, shit I can barely find e30's for sale in florida lately.

              that is sexy. i had the adapters, had the wheels, (have a blue e30), but didnt ever get them mounted because adaptec spacers are pieces of shit. but that looks really good.

                  Yes i would like to know the same thing. I know there for a while they went with a different machinist so the quality might have changed but they are now owned by a different company (motorsport-tech). That is who I am a distributor for. We stand behind our product 100%!! Who else offers a lifetime warranty!

                  If your needing a set of adapters let me know bud, i'll take care of you.

                        i would recommend someone get adaptec spacers, but not from this guy or motorsport-tech.

                            I dont think so. The design 42's are more $ though. But for a $50 + shipping id go with the design 42's if you got the cash to burn.

                              I will not argue the fact that in the beginning we had some very ruff start/customer service issues. I can an assure that all those complications have been ironed out an we are now a very smooth running operation.

                              Straight6, I greatly appreciate the kind words on my behalf an am very sorry for the complications that you were faced with. If you were ever so inclined to need something in the spacer/adapter realm again I can assure you a better experience. At the same time I fully understand if you would not be willing to take that chance. I would just hope that you give me the chance to make it a better experience. Again, if not it is understandable an i wish you nothing but the best!

                                I went through rob for my adapters and was extremely pleased. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again!
