OZ Superleggera 17" ET37?

[SpeedyWeber]

I found a set of 17x7 Superleggeras brand new never mounted on Vortex. They are et37. I plan on running 215/40's, gathered information from reading others posts. So I am assuming I should pick up a set of H&R 15mm spacers for them with 57.1 hubs, correct? This would give me et22 then which would fit?

Out of curiosity, why when looking at wheels on Tirerack would they list a 17x7 BBS with et37 as proper fitment for an e30? I'm assuming that's not taking into consideration lowering the car and that's why et20-25 would be better?

The car isn't lowered yet, but will be as soon as I decide on what springs to buy. While I'm on the subject, anyone have feedback on Intrax springs? After taking measurements of the gap I have now I'm looking to go around 2" in the front and 1" in the rear, or somewhere in that neighborhood. Any suggestions?

Use spacers, those wheels are sex

1. 15mm spacers are perfect.
2. You will also need hubcentric rings.
3. When you order from Tirerack they ship the wheels with spacers.
4. Get IE Stage 3 springs, Koni SA dampers, and run a 10mm spring pad in the rear.

Thanks for the replies.

IE springs, I saw those and was considering them, I'm a little afraid they might be too harsh, especially with a 40 series tire on a 17. I may have to reconsider how far I lower it.

They will not be too harsh. Unless you pair them with bilsteins.

Well, I definately need shocks. I just bought this car a month ago to use as a d/d but I can't leave anything I own stock. The car has the factory shocks which are shot with 150k on them. What shocks would you suggest then?


Found a photo of my old WRX with gold superleggeras on it, thought I would share.

[SpeedyWeber]

I forgot to ask, who is a good source for spacers and rings, and I'm assuming I'll need longer wheel bolts?
