B C Posted January 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 The m20 has just about the same power output as a supercharged previa too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doorman Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Wasn't sure I'd like gold rims. After seeing them a few different times I'm starting to dig them!!I've read some mixed info about making 15x8s fit well on the e30.Any info Snap? Looking for some for mine next.

B C Posted January 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 With et20 it appears that a wider tire could rub on the strut (225+) I would stick with a lower offset 15x7 since 205-50 is what you are going to find for summer tire sizes. If you are fine with performance all seasons then you will be able to find more available tires wider than 205 that justify getting an 8" wide wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always better to hear it from a reliable source then reading some posts from people on the web.http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/pts/4820532881.htmlBeen eyeballing these for awhile on CL. I'll have to call to double check offsets and center note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunMetalGrey Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Hmm, so if I send you an alternator it could come back to me powder coated? How do you feel about trying an s54 oil filer housing? So many things that could be shiny and new looking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B C Posted February 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 The answer is YES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't really go any bigger up front without doing some work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
