    What color are you going to paint them?  90's Pontiac theme is my vote.  Red on red.

        Lost funding, resources, and space.  Shit happens.

            I'm semi-offended that you aren't okay with my 45min spray painting job that gave these rotating wonders their black magic.  <<

              Got in my wheelie spacers! Oh boy! I have some serious scuffing/painting ahead. Hopefully I'll be mounting these bad boys up next weekend.

                Nice! I wonder where Dr Leadfoot got these from... I had these same wheels on my e30 back in the day--and those blue caps look familiar.

                ...which I got from this car:

                        So per Early's suggestion, I ordered a wheel bolt kit for my E30.  Hopefully it will be coming by the end of the week and I can get some more done on the wheels.  All the wheels are stripped but one.  It is stubborn as hell.  Damn you Dr. Leadfoot and your dip/paint/dip!  I think Im going to paint these wheels crazy as they are my winter setups.

                          You should have scooped up that 5 gallons of Elbow Grease that I had in the garage!  Priced to move quick!!

                            Sorry Z, I had to find out the hard way about wheels, so it was all on me & my lack of knowledge. I just don't think it's worth the weight savings, very good looking wheels tho.

                              These will just be for winter. Not for swag (swag swag swag). They look good on my monster truck.

                                What studs did you order from Ryan? Wheels look pretty good. What'd you use for paint? Is that the old trunk from one of your parts cars?

                                  I just got the basic silver stud kit. Went in awesome. I just stripped off the black, and left them silver til I get more time to make them wild. Yes, that's off Tony's old 325 sedan.
