I would source specialty upholstery fabrics from a LOCAL upholstery shop. Hell, they would likely even be willing to help you out if you are new to it.

anyone have experience running 4x100 to 5x120 adapters?

Im trying to keep costs down, so im not sure if filling and drilling or getting adapters would be my best bet...

[5Toes]

Adapters... then you can ALMOST ANY SET OF WHEELS YOU WANT.

And you can resell them with ease

very true 5toes... i just cant justify spending $350 on fcukkkin adapters when these wheels only cost me less than half the price..oh well gotta pay to play...

NOW WHO HAS SOME USED ADAPTERS THEY WANNA SELL ;)

[5Toes]

$350 new, and if you sell without a ton of rust $230 easy.

[spiDmang]

LOL $350 is more than half of what i paid for my car...

[LuckyHenriksen]

I hate how expensive adapters are. Yet of course I will keep buying them.

[Ryann]

I have a lead on a great set now, but... I'm trying to justify spending $2500 on wheels for this car.

!! What are they? I assume they are Ultra Cool.

yessir! :p

[DrJosh]

niiiiiice. What did you get?

[spiDmang]

e38 style 5s!! now i just need tires...anyone have a good hook up on tires? or know of any places that may sell used ones?

[e30austin]

I think you can get a decent set of Falken's through America's Tire for ~$350 out the door. Finding a used set of 205/45 is gonna be a bitch. Believe me, I tried. It's a weird size.
