      5x130.

      This is great. And +1 on the staggered D90's. I got a set on the car now (it is actually a red 4dr too). I haven't posted any pictures because I'm not satisfied with the ride height yet.

      I ordered GC camber plates today to drop the front another inch. They will be installed this weekend.

      Then pictures will ensue.

          Ummm, no. Unless your 5-lug comment was completely separate and had nothing to do with Porsche rims, that still wouldn't work. A 5-lug conversion implies going to 5x120 (BMW bolt pattern). These are a Porsche bolt pattern at 5x130. So the rims wouldn't mate.

              I would like to see pics when you get the wheels on your 4door. however there will be competition to see whose red 4door is more ballin.
              And to the other guy the rims are indeed 5x130 but i have adapters from 4x100 to fit the wheels.

              And your last name better be McBoob, that would be sexy :)

                  they are 15x6

                  The Vegas are actually 11.5 or 12" wheels. They are massive

                    I like it. it doesn't look expensive and that's the appeal it has. Now I really want to see those wheels on that car.

                        Car looks great. Your shadowline is doing wonders. I'd love to see those Porsche wheels on there.

                              Here are some pics taken by Mike at Fluid Motor Union (btw these guys are amazing and do basically any work you throw at them):









                              WARNING: I AM PARKED ON A SPEED BUMP IN THIS PICTURE. THIS WAS WHERE I WAS PARKED WHEN I WALKED TO THE CAR AND DIDNT FEEL LIKE MOVING IT BEFORE I TOOK ONE. I AM NOT TRYING TO PRETEND THAT MY EXHAUST IS .5 INCH OFF THE GROUND.

                                That looks sick! i love the third shot. what are the specs? 16x8 in the rear? how wide of adapters?
                                I will be running 16x8 rear with 25mm adapters i hope it is close to that
