      that's not really semantics, it's grammar.

          Yeah but, no one else said anything. It was really just a joke.

            I don't see what the fucks wrong with the tires? Why would you put smaller tires on there the wheel gap would be stupid, not just from the top of the fender to the tire but all around it. I don't get some of you people.

              'Semantics' was in reference to th 'xi' vs 'ix' that was posted.

              I was correcting his grammar since he came in to a thread with nothing to say other than correct OP on what could easily be a typo, yet still clearly defines the intended description.

                  I feel the same way. I have '55's, sometimes I think they're too tall, but '50's would look weak and skinny. If the car is clean, and this one looks so, it can pull the 65's off. And they were inexpensive, as stated.

                  Nice eta, I miss mine. Too bad they didn't make an Eta/Seta Touring. Then, I would have the best of both worlds.

                  oh BTW, since we're being grammar-bitches, it's "fuck's", Potter.

                    Well this seals the deal. It's time for weaves and a spoiler on my sedan. . . . .That or I can the bronzit and get a black one.

                      nice work with the IX weaves. the spacing looks really good! They could use a clear coat to make them glossy, though.

                      clean car, keep up the good work.

                        Nothing is wrong with the tires at all. Changing the size would just give it a different look.

                        Weaves, either 14'' or 15'' are so much more attractive than bottle caps. Do it!

                          Thank you,

                          I have clear coat on them, lots of it actually. They look better in direct sunlight. Its just the base color that sucks so bad. The color is really dull compared to the OEM wheel color which has lots of sparkles.

                            I definitely wouldnt buy OEM paint ($$$). I used silver Duplicolor wheel paint on my 15" weaves, and it turned out great. Has the metallic sparkle you speak of, and is very close in looks to OEM.

                              Just wondering what size spacers you use.

                                Nevermind the weaves. I just want your car! That's my dream e30, you got there. Curious, any pics of the interior?
