            The e36 DS2's (1st picture) are staggered and the front (17x7.5) has 15mm spacers and the rears (17x8.5) have 12mm spacers.

            The e39 style 42's (2nd picture) are all 17x8 et20 with no spacers...

            The car is sitting on a e30 m3 5 lug swap...



            Thanks for the comments :bow:

                Here are the interior shots I have at this time. Needs a good cleaning still (waiting after it comes out of the body shop before going crazy cleaning it though). I do not have engine pictures yet (typical m20 nothing else) but since it is fixing to be yanked and swapped out with something else there is no need at this time for those...

                Thanks!

                    cool. you could probably run 20mm spacers front and the 15mm rear with those long ass studs no problem.... or 20/25. looks baller either way. i wish i could get my damn 5lug together. i hate bmw for making the rear caliper parts NLA.

                      e30 M3 5 lug parts alone $2k+ and additional suspension parts add another $2k+ to that...

                      Yeah I went with the 90mm studs so I knew I would have them long enough for what ever spacers I needed for those DS2 wheels. I could have gone a bit further out with them as well but damn spacers are not exactly cheap, plus I was guessing as to what I might need for them to be safe. The rear fender lips are rolled flat and the fronts are untouched. Still needs a bit more drop in the front and then fender rolling will be needed there.

                      The front DS2's have 215/40-17 on 17x7.5

                      The rear DS2's have 245/35-17 on 17x8.5


                      Currently looking for 2 style 42's in 17x9 et26 (e39 fitment) as well.

                          Life is full of challenges. The one on the top of my list is sourcing an interior just like yours. Was there a whole lot of luck involved, or just a copius amount of money?

                            Wow the style 42s have never looked so good!


                            The DS2s always look nice when fit properly on an e30. ;)

                            And wow that steering wheel is pimp as fuck with the BBS center! :pimp:

                            How much did that wheel run you?
