    Woo go 18's.

    When you do get around to doing the rockers and rear valence, truck bed liner is the way to go. :up:
    I've thought about this before, may end up going this route now.

      All of your wheels look great Arik!!
      Correct indeed! You can pick up a set if you keep your eyes open for those with 7s who upgrade to other wheels.

      Diego- how bad is the play? You can get hub-centering rings from tire shops.

      Bill - You know I am a fan of bed liner...iS lip and m-tech I lip already have the treatment ;) 18" M parallel's next :crazy::drink:

      I love the kdw/2 a lot so far. I just got them mounted on Friday and they beat my expectations by a huuuge margin!

          Yes, that's what i thought, center rings to get it right. But they aren't mine yet, but I could pay for it cheap.

          It has some play, you just cant run them with out center rings or sort of, it's like runing "egged" wheels on the car.

          here are my actual rims with out paint yet. E46 16"

                  Word. I got a set for $120. They are the old style 5's, but the new E39 style 5's everyone knows. Did you need spacers? Fred Kim is running the same wheels and said he needed a small spacer to clear the calipers. I wouldn't know since I still need brakes to complete my 5 lug.

                      later body just looks so good. I really like the 16's. Just looks uber aggressive.

                          Dan - :giggle:

                          BwanaC - I love camber.

                          Freak -The 225s don't rub in the front @ full lock or in the rear. As you can see in the pic - the rear is VERY CLOSE. It doesn't rub during auto-x or during me pulling in and out of my driveway or other steep inclines.

                          Devo - Yes indeed. I have always had a 5mm spacer upfront to clear the caliper as you've already figured out from Fred. I actually got the wheels for less than $100 too 8-)

                          MikeK -You're a traitor

                          Mariano - I am yet to run a mesh wheel with caps. I usually go capless with the mesh wheels. The studs also prevent me from even wanting to change my mind ever!

                                Correct indeed. They are from a euro e34 hence being staggered and fitting directly on the e30m3 hubs. They are actually called CROSS-SPOKE,COMPOSITE WHEEL style 5 PN 36111182305, 36111182217

                                The 16" wheels are actually called CROSS-SPOKE style 5 and are from an e38. PN 36111182277
