    These are what most guys are running adapter wise. They can do custom sizes and everything else looks like they would run you $240 thats not bad

    Awesome.
    Looks like what i need will have to be custom ordered since i didn't find any listing on their site for 4x100-4x114 adapters..I'll contact them and see what's available.
    Thanks for the link!

      Custom adapters for these Epsilons are being made and shipped out next week...can't fucking wait.




      Washed her and mocked them up. Looks good. Just need to sort out some suspension and i'll be happy... for a bit..

      Im thinking about B'sports and H&R Race with drop-hats. Or MeganRacing full coil-overs for adjustability. Dunno yet.

        I suggest you sell those wheels and find something 4x100, also recommend timing belt first unless you know and can prove when it was last done, try a clay bar on your paint, they work best on alpine

          Do you not trust adapters/spacers or something?

          I really enjoy the look of these wheels. They're for show, not for go. I have plans for a track wheel set-up as well. So i won't be too aggressive with this set. And i'm getting top quality adapters...no eBay specials here.

          The PO assured me that the T-belt was done at 104k miles. Now at 108,xxx miles. But you are right, since i can't confirm it 100% i'll put it on the ASAP to-do list. Also, thanks for the claybar advice. When i get some time i'll detail her once more and put the claybar to use. Good to know Alpineweiss responds well to TLC. :up:

              Straighten out that valence with your new lip! Looks great otherwise. Can't wait to see those wheels and some suspension on.

                      Test fitting the Epsilons before i get new tires and suspension..
















                      Thinking about painting the centers alpinweiss or bright silver..or re-spray the gold. Not sure yet.

                                Love the wheels! What bolt pattern are they?

                                Are those depo lights?
