M52 and S50 crank are the same. Someone will want it for a stroker build.

M52=84mm
S50=85.8mm

M54B30 crank=S52B32 crank=89.6 mm

[djjerme]

Is it M52B25 or M52B28? (75 vs 84)

M52=84mm
S50=85.8mm

M54B30 crank=S52B32 crank=89.6 mm

Oops :/

So my odometer stopped working and alot of other stuff went crazy: flashing CHECK light is off(not complaining), high beams come on randomly, gas light doesn't come on, and fans for heater don't come on. I checked the fuses and they looked okay? Any suggestions?

sounds like a short somewhere.

[delamaize]

Tired of getting the runaround from people, Can someone give me a strait answer, Will this wheel fit without spacers? and yes, I understand that they are not hubcentric. Thinking about running these on 205/50R15.

I'm not hell bent on THIS wheel, I'm looking for a steely, that looks something like this, that I can get a 205 or 215 on, without doing crazy shit to make it fit. And Yes, I do know about Corsica's wheels, But I can't bring myself to pay $165 a piece for steel wheels....

Just go buy a set of the TR Motorsports wheels off tire rack. They look great, fit well and are very cheap new...

[Wschnitz]

Steelies are heavier then you think fyi.

And they will immediately rust.

Cool thanks... I guess ill start hunting it down

Finally got the e30 running. Stupid fpr was shot. Fired that bitch up and the horrible bog off idle disappeared too. I scored 249 out of 250 on my federal shoot today while dealing with a hangover too. Fuck I'm happy

Heavy, yes.

Rust, not so much.

I have similar wheels on my truck and they are 6 years old and still look great. They were just the cheapo D-window wheels like that from either Jegs or Summit.

949 racing. They have an e30 spec wheel, its 13 lbs. I have them in tungsten and like them, I just wish they made them in 16" too. I also wish they came wider with a bigger lip.

[BraveUlysses]

tire options for 16's are getting worse every year

also consider the classic kosei K1 which are light and widely available used.

[djjerme]

I've been putting the new style R888's on all the 16" rims I got. They aren't the longest wearing tire, and I definitely wouldn't run them in the winter. But they are a decent, gripy tire for the street.

Hey PNW crew.. I've got a red s/m50 metal valve cover professionally powder coated red. Looks great! I'm looking to pass it on and am asking $95, please let me know if any of you are interested.
