adapted and dished

[RickSloan]

Recently got my e30rob 4x100 to 5x120 adapters. Wanted to do a little shoot since i have been waiting a lng time now to get these wheels on the car.

i'll be posting these in rob's thread as well as a review of the adapters so far.

she's dirty but i'm in love again. the fit couldn't have come out better and i am truely stoked. There is a few other things i have changed since i last posted pictures so please bring on the comments.

enjoy!

Oh man, what size are those? Our cars are going to look similar pretty soon.

[RickSloan]

Tuck those bad boys a bit and itll be fantastic.

[raafhimself]

[ak-]

Looks awesome.
Report back on how those adapters hold up, everyone talks so negative about everything.

[RickSloan]

thanks guys

can go lower and will but i need a skid plate and shorter shocks and struts first...

and i will be updating my reviews of the adapters, i like them so far and i plan to drive hard as i can on them. Running at summit point for hyperfest! Plus lots o auto cross

negative. Whats your setup? You can more than likely go lower than you think with just a little modification.

let us know your setup, two suspension gurus are posting now. haha Stephen lets help him out.

Car looks sick though man. I love the wheel choice. I have heard some bad reviews on the paradas though. Let us know how they work out for you

What offset are those wheels, and what size tires are you running?

[RickSloan]

ok first the offset of the wheels is et11 then a 20mm adapter so overall et+9
16x7 with a 205/45/16

i'm on cosmo coils and have room to go down front and rear. Koni's up front and billy sports out back. At full low in the back the billys stop working, bouncy as hell and they are brand new. The fronts can go another 1/2 inch down with out more strut work, when its full low tho the shocks bang bad while turn and hitting bumps or big bumps period.

I have IE race camber plates up front, and i believe my spring rates are 370 and 460 but im not positive. I wanna go stiffer real soon

as for the paradas, the price was nuts and so far i really really like them, i read reviews that they get loud. I had them on my e24 for a while so far and im liking them alot.

16x7 you buy those 15's?

I still have the 15's, I was tempted to sell them a while back but I couldn't bring myself to do it, I knew I would regret it. Black euro bumpers are ftw!

[Jand3rson]

Awesome. The wheels I have are 16x7.5, and they're ET35. I'm going to with a 25mm adapter in the rear, and a 20mm in the front, putting me at ET10 and ET15, respectively. Those are also the same brand and size of tires I'm getting, they look great, probably look even a little better on a 7.5 wide rim. I'm on IE3's with one coil cut up front.

[Lof8]

enkeis are dope. I'm really liking everything about it. More close up shots needed!

[RickSloan]

awesome man, yea you will be in almost the same area as me, might even be able to get away with very little roll with it stretched a little, they are gonna look sweet on a 7.5 they are so aggressive looking i love it!
