            While not a selfie - it accurately describes my feelings on your wheel gap.

                            The m20 has just about the same power output as a supercharged previa too

                              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.

                                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

                                  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.html

                                  Been eyeballing these for awhile on CL. I'll have to call to double check offsets and center note.

                                      What did you do with the apex seals? Excited to see this rotary powered e30.

                                          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...

                                          ...
