                  Will they be done by the 29th? I think Atan888 is throwing another meet at the usual spot.

                  Thanks, I dunno if I'll be able to make that meet. I have another meet that I recently committed to, but we'll see what happens.

                  Robby, thanks for buyin my wheels bro. Looks like the they went to a good home. Like Kilawin said, I got the lips from Tunershop.

                  10.5" sounds too big for 3" outerlips. I have 6" inner and 3.5" outer lips with fenders rolled and they fit barely. Only few millimeters of room inside.

                  Never the less looks pretty sweet :) What kind of tire are you going to use?

                  My front and rear fenders are pulled and rolled out almost an inch, prolly a little more in the rear. The front barrel is 7" and the rear barrel is 7.5". Its all about offset of your rs's. If you notice your faces curve in from the middle to the lips, mine doesnt. There are different model numbers in the faces of the rs's and yours prolly differs from my rs's model number. The rs's I am running have a porsche bolt pattern.

                  Its hard to explain, but I built mine through trial and error, I pretty kept measuring over and over and tried to minimize errors. The only error that i made is measuring the front adapter size. But oh well, its almost done, and tires should be mounted in the next couple of days, and the new adapter is coming friday.

                  :up:


                  I think im a bit too low........ :(

                    I think Im going to have to murder my fenders to fit my 10s. The only way I will have a chance is 215/45. Im looking forward to seeing yours done.

                        Ah okay.. My wheels were from e28 m5 and the offset was about 20mm. But then I was lucky and found centers from mercedes with et 34. As you said smaller the offset more "flat" the centers are. I changed the bolt pattern to 4x100 and I was able to fit them in rear.

                        sorry ot :)

                            You have one hot vert!
                            It sorta reminds me of Qimis' car, but with a black top.
                            He had a white 2dr, 16x9.5"/10" RS's on a Porsche bolt pattern.

                            I just picked up wheels like that too, I'll eventually be rebuilding them.
