    Yeah, I need to get my wheel spacer/vibration issue fixed first. Little embarassing... But an order is being placed soon.

    Wheelgap is like a vagina. The more fingers you get in, the worse it is.

      I think about "if I could do it over" all the time. I've built so many e30s in my head lol.

          Nope. I had a white 'i' and a grey 'ix' here in Denver. I've got an a4 wagon now. Just going to give it some stance and be done with it ;) E30's will have to wait until after school lol.

I was out raising hell last weekend and was rubbing under hard acceleration (with another person in the car). I also want to put 225s on the 16 inch weaves that I have and am really worried about clearance.

              Enter the E30 rear suspension........ Now that I think though, lower was on the menu before, might be in order to clear... There may be a sweet spot where they won't rub inboard or outboard.

                Not exactly, I am currently running 245s and 2.5 deg negative camber. The issue lies in that my current wheels are 38 offset and the new ones are 20 I think. Thus placing the wheel 18 mm further out. My thinking is if I go down 20mm in tire width, that would be 10mm on each side, so my net 'edge' of tire change would be 8mm. Does that sound right to you guys?

                      Thanks, I took a quick look at that before but there is a lot of shit to sift through. Maybe after finals are over I can sit down with a good bottle and go through that thread.

                            Maybe 10 years ago, I may still be an alcoholic but at least my taste has improved.

                            I wouldn't mind sipping some Crown or some Zacapa Centenario. I used to enjoy good tequila when I was making money, but now I can't justify $100+ for a bottle.

                                Kinda... It was me and Clark, my car didn't need it and he rolled his to fit his new coilovers and wheel / tire combo.. It can be put together again though, get enough interest and pick a day
