    Pics with adapters

    Shoot me if this already exists I couldn't find a thread. I have a set of adapters and a few sets of 5x120 wheels trying to decide what to run on my verts.

    Post up your pics of adapters and put the specs in for your adapters and wheels please.

    ...to answer your other ? in the vert thread. :up:

    I personally would run 18mmspacers in front with 20mm in back with the style 5s. 205/50s. Its been on my mind for my cabrio...if I could pull myself away from my euroweaves. I think for yours, euroweaves and euro bumpers...done! :up:

      Funny, I just posted asking if those were adapters in another thread. I have 3 sets of 17" style 5's and a set of 16's too. Also have some e36 wheels. I'd like to run 17" 5's on my calypso vert just wasn't sure how they would fit with adapters.

        Too much poke on those. Rather see it on fill and drill, than poking out of fenders like 70's muscle car on air ride shocks and cragers.

        Plenty of options vs lower offset and adapters.

          I totally agree with the car in that link, I just posted it as he also asked in the vert thread. Now with 18/20 adapters, it would pass in my book, and im very picky on my look. Fill and drill would be nice too so then you could put down more rubber.

            I'm just kicking ideas since I already have a set of adapters. I'm not going to get the wheels filled and drilled, I'll go with 4x100's if that's the only option.

            As for euro bumpers I already have those on my coupe along with e30 M3 5-lug swap, trying to keep this car on a budget as a nice driver, hence trying to use the stuff I already have.

                  Yep, I actually was talking with the owner of this car last weekend at our local ofest. He said he did have to roll in the back and still rubs on hard acceleration (318is ) haha but he still does. He is a stand up guy and im sure would give you more info at request. That pic was The Vintage show last year so I gues its holding up quite well. I do believe it its lower in the front now.

                      Haha I'll get some better pics for ya bud... and definitely don't rub under hard acceleration Dan (not possible) lol just hard cornering over bumps. But it's not near enough to worry about. No signs of it on my tires and it just really doesn't happen all that much. I've got 18f 20r with the 16x8 style 5s running yoko 205/45 tires.

                          I think my spacers are all 4 20mm. I was running the 5's on my s50 car with 5-bolt swap until I changed out to the 17" 5's. So now I have those wheels but with 225/45's on them. I have a set of 205/40-16's that are near new, may be a little small though.
