      Again, 90mm studs from Turner Motorsport with the BBS lug nuts. Wheels are TRM C1 15x8 in black, with Yokohama S Drive tires sized 205/50/15.

              Gazed at em all day today and now you want some? You don't have a car to put em on.

              Geezer, thanks a bunch for the pics. I don't think I'm sold on the 90mm studs just cause I wouldn't have a use for em, I think the 75mm ones would do fine.

                They make a nice lightweight 17x9 e36 wheel.

                I'd agree, 75mm is what you need. We should have measured mine when we were messing with my brakes today.

                  I'll definitely say 75mm is much easier to work with. I have a ton of unnecessary threading on my studs, as you can see. Nice for looks, but a time consumer when swapping wheels.

                        I'm also cheap. Don't need it, don't buy it.

                          Get a speeder bar. Cheap, no batteries, almost as easy as an impact gun.

                            I just use a 4 way, hold one end with a glove and give the top a nice push, let it just spin.

                              Excuse my retardation; but what kind of torque wrench are you guys using to torque down the nuts if you've got several cm's of stud poking out?
