I feel a lot better now that she arrived without issue at Gutenparts, now comes the difficult part of ignoring Levent's evil suggestions as to what can be done.

I liked how the Azev C look on the wagon but I kept spinning the 215/40 rear tires with the s52 under the hood, so I decided to put fatter tires on the rear but why not fatter wheels at the same time?
Finding wheels in wider than the 17x8.5 and in 4x100 bolt pattern turned out to be a lot harder than I expected, however, when I want something I will just search the world for it and this time I got lucky and found this setup in Belgium... staggered 17" Azev C!
Now that they have been found how am I going to get them? I found out that Levent's brother Turk is in the Netherlands, got in touch with him and a few months later these boxes arrived.
Somehow the one of the three boxes received First Class travel arrangements as the box arrived in perfect condition
Opening the first box and it is nice to know that a car guy packed these wheels for shipment!
Today I picked up the last two boxes and I was most excited to get these two opened up.
These are a pair of 17x10 Azev C with 245/35/17 tires on them! I will find a way to make them fit on the rear of the wagon.

So what do you do when you want some /M instrumentation without paying for an /M cluster?
You have someone make it!
While I would love to have a real e30M3 Euro cluster the price is just excessive, so after looking at my friends e34 M5 cluster I am having the following oil temp gauge made by the guy who made the Econoboost gauge.
I like the look of the M5 oil temp dial over the original M3 one.
