[Rob]

alright alright, the overwhelming majority has spoken.

the tears won't be going on the bimmer.. :evil:

grow a set for shits sake.

is there anyway to get them to sit as far out as my bottelcaps?

Yes, get some spacers

Whats the best place to get them? and what do i need? 15mm?

[DanGillan]

i'd say 15mm, and make sure you get longer lug bolts, there is a set of 15mm spacers and bolts for sale on the DTM for sale board, go check it out

too bad proper spacers are going to cost you more than the value of the wheels.

Teardrops>Bottlecaps

if its any consolation, I saw a passat with a set of bottlecaps on it. I was going to take a picture of it but it was at a gas station and i didnt have my camera

a good pair of 15mm spacers will cost you a good $100 (15mm H&R Trak+ spacers) and in addition to that, you have to spend who knows how much on extended wheel bolts (in this case, 45mm.)

so you're lookin to spend a good $300 just to space the wheels out right.

this enough should discourage you to not put on the teardrops, although I have nothing against you doing so.

erm.. yeah. i like their look, but not enough to spend as much as another set of tires, just to get them on.

MB, BMW, and VW all have versions of the bottle caps. My friend's Golf has the VW caps, but seriously, they look like the BMW caps.

no man, these were bmw bottle caps, trust me I have a set. I know what they look like.

[Mystikal]

I still think ET38 6" wide wheels with 195's will fit without spacers. They would be way inside the fenders, but I'd do it if I hated bottlecaps enough.
