    Just got some new wheels..



    16x9 borbet type a's, damn near mint with barely used tires (dunlop direzza dz101 205/40-45?-R16). I forget if it's 40 or 45 sidewall. $1400 with tires/flat caps/tool/3mm spacers for the front/hub centric rings. So I am running et 12 in the front and et 15 in the rear.

    I spent about 3 hours grinding the caliper because the 3mm spacer did not clear it...yay.

    I am running GC coilovers 500f/700r with bilstein sports. I cannot go lower due to my 24v swap, took full stainless steel exhaust tubing to the local shop...well they didn't do it like I said so it hangs pretty low. I scrape it nearly everywhere.

              I have always used Dunlop direzza dz101, they have the best wear that I have seen. I've always run real stupid camber and they never wore like crazy on the inside, rather even.

                    These wheels just cannot go wrong on any car.

                      As soon as the buddy who sold me the wheels buys a welder with the money I paid for the wheels, it will be fixed, and the e30 will be lower.

                      EDIT: Also the buddy who sold me the wheels also makes mono-wipers.
