Adapters only come in 20mm and up I believe. I ran 20mm on those same wheels with 225/45/16 and they rubbed pretty hard, but with an aggressive roll you should be ok. Or run 205/45/16 or 225/40/16.

Okay right on yeah my fenders are rolled pretty aggressively because i was scraping my XXR lip on the rear fender. I also plan on going lower down the road but i like my height now plus i have that low m42 oil pan. I'm thinking either 205/45/16 or 205/50/16

adapters come in 18mm+

Talk to the 8380 labs, or something like that.

I will be running
Front - 17x8 et20 with 18mm adapters to put it at et2
Rear - 17x8 et20 with 23mm adapter to put it at et-3

Yeah im looking at 8380 labs for the spacers for sure.

I will be running those style 5's with a 25mm adapter all around and will get the wheels wrapped tomorrow with 205/45. Should be a nice stretch on them. I'll keep you guys posted.

For reference, the 205/45 will give you a whole wheel/tire height of 24". You measure that around your current wheels and compare.

I'm really interested to see how this works out. I wanna know how to properly modify my rear double wall fenders/quarter panels to fit lower offset wheels.


Today was a bit frustrating. Basically worked from 4-9 and I got the springs off the strut housings, the dust shields and perches cut off, and i hit them all over with a wire wheel to clean them up. Tomorrow they'll be degreased and painted and the D-rings will be welded on. My new plan for this weekend is to just get the front finished, i'll do the rear bushings next weekend.

That's always good lol.


Out of curiosity, how much does a BAR-legal full custom exhaust cost? Of course it depends on the shop, but a couple local examples would be helpful.

I'm not worried about it, there's always roll and pull. If its too aggressive at -2 then camber kit is needed. It's cheese.

E30 late rear fenders are a BITCH, as you'll soon find out.

I think my exhaust was 600 or something. I provided the muffler and cat back piping however.
