    Its really to much tire for the 318 to push but they look good, 225 45 would be better
    I've been watching your cars progress keep up the good work
    We should meet up some time

    hmm.... i'll have to do some tire size comparing when these ones wear out.

    yeah you are about 50 minutes from me, and you are even closer to my school (UMBC).

    Do you do autocross? if so, you should go to the NCCBMWCCA autocross meet in Sykesville, MD June 13th.

      Stick those things out further. The K1's look awesome when they're pokin' out the sides. IX hubs stick out almost 20mm further than an IS, so I didn't need spacers. :p
      i just might!!

      yeah, i do think about that, like how anal i will be after i get the bodywork and paint done.... but i am really looking forward to this car to looking mint.

        No longer stock ride height, rolling as low as a daily driver in New England should without worrying about breaking an oil pan. :up:

            I thought these were an offset of 38 from the Tire Rack?
            TR lists them as coming with bolts and spacers, so what is the wheels actual offset, without spacers?

                                Less than an hour of taping and flat black spray can on the rockers and rear valance will be such an enormous improvement. Wheels look great, but the fading of the black really eats at me.
