    ***UPDATE***



    I just could not resist buying these new wheels my car really needs this for more traction :)


    A nice barely used KESKIN |KT1 wheels in 17x10 and 17x8.5 with TOYO RA-1 racing tires on with less then 500km sizes 255/40/17 rears and 235/40/17 fronts.
    also bought the IE flares to go with them (this is a pic of MATracer's car with the same flares and the wheels) I'm going to blend them in the body when I redo the paint to a Rat rot satin black in version 2.0 of my twincharger.


    here they are installed on my car checking fitment lol...If this cant put 500HP to the floor then I dont know what will...


    and the Vert now gets proper choose's too with my now ex 16x9 and 16x8 ESM wheels.


    I removed the old axle (check the carnage) and I was going to install my brand new one and now I am not sure if I should....
    Can somebody tell me why and how this new one comes with grease and no braces.. (but comes with new bolts..etc...) ????

        20 in the back... 30 in front. With these fenders I could add even more tire and a spacer :) traction is going to rule...just not sure ont the axles... I'm very disappointed with the axles on the e30 seems like the weak spot :(

          Not sure about the axles you have. I use feq and they look identical to stock, come with new hardware and stuff too.

            did you have to assemble the part going in the diff? I will go back to the store with it to find out whats up? thing even comes with new oem bolts, nut, but I have to pack the grease and crimp without crimps or tool to do it :( weird plus dont I also need a special glue as well??

                      HAHA NICE!! Sold those wheels and flares to a guy with a SR20DET E30 project. Saw them for sale a bit after on Montrealracing.com... You sir got my flares and wheels!

                      here is the best I could do without flares wit hthe 235 on the rear wheels...



                      Need flares to run descent tires with 10'' wide wheels! Good decision!

                      Glad to see that they are in good hands!
