You messed with your fenders for those ugly wheels? I am lost to be honest...that is a lot of rolling for the size of the wheels and tires.

Plus no pictures of the car on the ground?

What are the specs? That looks like a retarded amount of fender work(done with a dent puller about being cut?).

16x8 et4 with 215/45/16's

fronts were easy, hammer and dolly got a nice shape, rears were double stamped steel, had to take a more agressive approach lol, but fine-tuned it with the dolly.


and it took us about a hr, not counting the beer drinking and stopping to bs about work.

You could have gotten by with a much less drastic pull, but to each their own. I'll reserve any other comments till I see the whole thing.

Seriously, you do all this work and don't even get full car photos? This thread is disappoint until you do.

Those Rota RB's? They can actually look pretty sick on an e30.My brother has them on his 2002, they fit that car the best IMO, but curious to see how these look. Bodywork is never easy, looks like this came out well so far. Looking forward to more pics! :up:

good job on the fenders!

Now put 245s R compounds all the way around it and hit up your closest Auto X and dominate.

lol thanks man, i need to get stiffer springs, the fronts are perfect but sharp cornering, or any turn faster than 60 will still rub a little in the rear from body roll. i know GE coilovers are doing another run so when those are avail. ima pick a set up.

ive got 9.5" salad shooters all around. with 235 tires in the back. i just folded the lips in the fenders and i dont have too much rubbing

Looks pretty good. I'm thinking to do some heavy fender cutting welding to fit 10.5-11 inch wide wheels in the back run a 255-265 tire...
