If anyone is interested in a wagon, I've put mine up for sale : Marketplace

 

 

 

 

 

My only reason to sell the vehicle is based on what it will be exposed to come September. Kids will go to pre/post school at a location that is a mile down a dirt and gravel road and up a farm house with over grown shrubs. I don't want to expose either of my current vehicles and can't have three cars at this time. Figure next owner isn't going to be looking for a car that is filled with sand and dust in every location not to mention the wear it will get due to the rocks.

If it doesn't sell, I won't be too upset as I'm enjoying the ride very much.

 

A slight change.

Yes, I meant rubbing... what other "nemesis" do wheel lovers face? (specially when trying to be non-traditional) lol! Yeah, I am another one of those who turns the knob to "S" as soon as the car is on. On the "rubbing" note. I dunno. I looks like the rears would be fine. Let's remember that as suspension travels, negative camber increases, allowing the wheel to sorta tuck under the fender. Looking fwd to see what your winter set up will be.

 

 

 

I am sure the diameter of the overall set up has not changed and the distance from the tire to the body of the car, twd the front and the back, should also not have changed. If it ain't rubbing now, it won't be later (if I am picturing this correctly).

 

 

 

My dream wheel ��

Have them on my RX-7. Let me know if you ever sell them.

 

 

Some photo bombers too.

 

You should do a compilation post of all your wheels with the same/similar angles side by side. Maybe profile shots?

I can't decide on a set and you basically have done a study on e63 fitment haha. Which ones do you have and which are sold?

 

I can certainly do that.

"20x9" ET38 + 5mm spacers = ET33 265/30R20"

Dr. Jimminez, I have a, ahem, friend, cough*, who is considering running 5mm spacers up front with stock wheels. Did you run them straight up on the hub or did you use hub extenders? If you are running the 5mm on stock hub, how much lip is there left to mount the wheel on?

Thanks.

 

Those were BBS PFS spacers that have an incorporated hubring lip. I did buy some other 5mm spacers to use with my stock wheels but never mounted so don't have an answer for you.

This is how BBS PFS spacers look.

 

Thanks for your response, Jimminez. I looked those up and glanced over the item description. They only work on BBS wheels apparently. I am currently running 3mm spacers and I feel like the amount of lip left is the bare minimum to mount a wheel on. I am thinking of giving these hub extenders a try. Will let the community know how that goes when/if I go that route.
