Redrill is a project for another day. I have always wanted a set of these wheels, redrilled on a Henna early model with either an S14 or itb'd M20... Someday.

Edit: Or not redrilled with E30 M3 5-lug.

Theres a local with these redrilled to 4 lug, but cleanely and then had the centers machined flat so you can't tell. And he has an s14 in his car. He's on here but I can't remember his name atm..........Cool car for sure

Almost bought these lol

But I'm gonna run the 205/45's I already have. I wish I had some 205/50's or 215/45's...



If someone will give me $1500 I'd sell the Futura's. If not, I'm just going to sit on them.

You think you can fit 205/50 with adapters? I have a set of style 5s with 205/50s but haven't installed them because I was told they would rub everywhere.

I have a friend running 225/50s on style 5s with 18mm adaptors. He's on h&r race w/ bilstein sports. You'll need a fender roll for those, but 205s shouldn't be an issue.

Yeah I don't see 205/50's on 16x8 et5 and et3 being a problem with rolled fenders.

it won't be. I ran 15x8 et-12 on stock body :p

edit-with a 205/50 Azenie.....and those run wide!

Do you have pictures? This sounds highly unlikely without a roll and pull. I had problems running 225/50 16x8 et20

I highlighted the part about the fender roll incase you missed it, but I said he rolled em. I'll ask him to text me pics then I'll upload em ;)

edit- here r ur pictarz. I guess first hand experience beats word of mouth







And here's a pic of 205/50 on 15x8 et-12 just to show that it fits as well

I said roll and pull.

His name is keefy6

I said roll and pull.

I know, he didn't pull them :p They may have been pulled slightly when he rolled them, but it wasn't intentional & couldn't have been more than 1/8". So imagine what they would look like with a pull, totally do-able

His name is keefy6

Yes, thank you

[mbonanni]

Are those these wheels?

No, the pics I posted are my friend Josh's car up in MA. Regular e38 style 5's with...... 8130 adaptors? the thin ones, pretty sure they're 18mm. That Keefy guy is a local, I just mentioned him earlier bc the style 5's and s14 swap.

[mbonanni]

Didn't see the ones you posted. So he doesn't rub with that setup? Suspension?

Is he running 225/50 just in the rear? I could see him fitting that with early model rear arches and a slight roll/pull.

here is my 16x8 et20 225/50 all around. There is definitely not 20mm more of fender room for those front wheels.
