    with a 20mm offset you won't need spacers. remember, a lower numerical offset means the wheel will move further out. that would increase the distance between the wheel and your strut, and decrease the distance between the wheel and fender.

        Looks pretty sweet!

        What are you doing with the old rims? I think you could put them on ebay and get some ricer to buy em for over $300. :D

        Damn, those are ugly... :?

        Once those Alpinas are on, your car will look SOOO HOT! :D

                      SO what are you doing with the old rims?
                      How much are you selling them for?
                      What are they, and their specs? Tires too??

                        I think it looks high until I realize the rear wheel wells are cut higher on pre-88 cars. It is fairly low, lower than my H&R sport.

                            Looks like it has already settled a bunch since you took the first pics.

                            Nice looking e30, except for the wheels, but you've got that covered.
