Josh what size tires are you running on your style 5's? Sorry to thread jack, car looks very nice, i am saving up to get a set of the style 5's.

No prob, they're not Style 5's, tho. They're 16x7.5 ACT weaves, and I'm running a 205/45/16 Yokohama Parada Spec-2.

They're a hair undersized (45 rather than a 50), but I didn't want a tall balloon-sidewall.

AH! I looked at your thread in members rides a little while ago I just forgot what wheels they were, very close to style 5's, especially from your sig.
Your tires are perfect on those wheels though. I don't like stretch much.

Would a set of style 5's and adapters be cheaper than getting them redrilled and the hassle of finding a place to do it? Or is it even possible with the style 5's to go the adapter route. I can probably find a set for VERY cheap.

Fucking tits man. Those rims are one the best looking rims on an E30. 16x8's?

How's the quality of the redrill?

You are going to poke/rub like maddd in the rear if you do adapters or need quite a bit of fender work.
18mm is the smallest you can go safely when doing hubcentric adapters.
style 5 has an offset of +23, 16x8, and since you don't like stretch...

edit: Actually I'm not sure, you have an early model then again..

Thanks you kindly.
Yes sir 16x8. The quality is great. Completely welded-in/filled(even the little holes to align your wheels with that tool), and then drilled.
Center bore is 72.xxmm, so a 4x100 drill is close but it doesn't penetrate the center bore.
I'm 100% confident, and will be tracking soon.

I also have coilovers, so I can adjust the height. I can't find any damn adapters though? Any suggestions on where to find them?

Yes, coil-overs definitley help, but my rear is sort of giving you an illusion. My rear wheels look like they are a little sucked in, but I really cannot fit my pinkey in there honestly(cambered to hell too). When I roll them(I'm against pulling), I will gain a finger width of clearance(still cambered to hell...). So take that into consideration.
But then again like I mentioned, you have higher arches. I'm not too familiar on how much higher they are from a late model, but that itself could make or break you when you roll your fenders I'm assuming if you decide on adapters.

e30Rob makes reputable adapters that Josh himself is running with his nice wheels.

Not to thread-jack, buuuuuuut. Adaptec also sells adapters, as does (apparently) H&R. But I don't think you can find 5x120 to 4x100 in less than a 20mm width. Which puts you at about 0 offset. If you're having trouble visualizing I was told to imagine sportmaxx fitment. Many of them are 16x8 0 offset. I'm determined to run style 5's with adapters though.

You should swap bumpers w/him before he sells his shit box. They used to be mine, and they look sick on a black car.
