    Love those wheels. 5 lug conversion right? Not adapters?

          I dig either of the two looks :up:

          Are you going to color match the fins?

              Yeh, I think they'd look better color matched. The color doesn't seem to flow with the rest of the car.

                How the fuck did you get those to fit with adapters? What size tires? 8j square or staggared width? I know I have the lower rear arches but I'm ribbing like crazy in the front and a bit in the back sigh 215/40R17 all around on my staggared set.

                  Looks fantastic! I had my staggered set on the e30 the other day.. Almost fits with 245's! Thanks for the turbines a while back, I'm still loving them!

                    They are square. My tires are 205/40 though. I do have some staggered 32s that will be going on in a few months and those will be a little tighter fitment wise. The way it is now is very comfortable and fits pretty conservatively.

                    Ya the gold isn't for everyone but its just spray paint for now. I would like to get them professionally refinished in the future.

                    Thats pretty impressive! Especially for a late model.
                    Ya thanks for the stars too. Glad we were able to work out a trade.

                      Thanks for the info. Knowing you've got 205's makes me feel a little better. What springs? I'm on GE 6" coils almost all the way up with 2.5" shortened housings. I think I'm maybe a bit lower than you though. Looks great and aggressive in the front with the poke either way!

                        Im on shortened GCs with shortbody konis. The rear is spun all the way down but I usually just take out the adjuster when I'm on 16". The front is about at the halfway point. Rides a lot nicer and better tire wear than when I'm at this height

                          I love this car. Looks tits with the t stars IMHO. Makes me wish I hadn't sold my m systems.

                              I thought about doing my wheels too but they still have the nice original finish so I didn't want to mess that up. Its funny how often people think I have whitewalls though.

                                That is the reason they stopped using them. People snickered about them on autoweek back in the day.
