    yup, did some math and took some measurements - looks like the rears will clear with no spacer at all as I have like 1.5" between the strut and the wheel, and it only adds 1.7mm of poke. 

    The fronts will still require a spacer because the strut is closer to the wheel. It's got probably 3/4" or a bit more, so likely re-use the existing 12mm which would give about .46" closer to the strut and about .5" more poke which should work out given the tire will stretch a bit and be lower profile.

        RED ROKT would be alright. Double standard with south park and also the fact that it's a pretty fast street car that's red.

          Am I the only one thinking of the gross type of red rocket? You know, that thing that happens when a male dog gets excited?

          Which dyno are you getting on? I'm excited to see the numbers.

            yea that's why i said "it's a double standard with South Park" because they did an episode on that one time, LOL. 

            I'm not actually getting that plate. I may not get any vanity plate if i can't think of something i really like. 

            I'll be up on LMT's dyno 😁  Should be a good day. immediately following that I'll be getting the new tires mounted on the Apex wheels for the E30, so i can go home and put htem on.

              If you put down monstrous numbers, I might have to pay them a visit for my car. Any guesses?

                Hard to say for sure. The car isn't fully tuned yet but it is running smoothly enough that I think it's worth getting an initial dyno pull. 

                From all the dyno results I have seen on N55 pure stg2, targeting 21 psi on E50 has resulted in anywhere from 480-500. People running meth put down slightly better numbers ~530. 

                I would be happy to see 475 because that would show a gain of over 100 whp going from stock turbo to Pure. I'm more concerned with the gain than the raw number. Helps me validate the money I spent 😁

                  Double entendre, dual meaning.  Most definitely meant it as a dog boner and the fact that his car is red.  I went for the triple entendre with ROT RCKT since ROT is German for red, dog boners and he has a red car.  It was meant as more of a joke.

                      I know LMT is certainly not a heartbreaker. A FBO (no inlets) N54 335i on a E60 Wedge tune (~21psi peak) put down 450whp in 3rd gear, should be around 460whp in 4th gear (dyno operator couldn't figure out the kickdown I guess, idk haven't tried a 6AT e90). Meanwhile I put down 391awhp with minimal mods, stock dp's, stock fmic on 18psi with a few gallons e85 to prevent timing correction from high iat.

                      Anyways, I vote for SHTFCK

                        They've changed the calibration on the dyno relatively recently to sae correction, for whatever it's worth.

                              New wheels are on. I could not possibly be any happier with how they look. Fitment is really good with 12mm spacers all around. I think I am going to drop to a 10mm just for peace of mind but right now I can get a full lock on the wheel again with no rub and driving over normal bumps so far is no problem.

                                      What rubber?

                                      Also thread is dead because that plate (even though I suck at reading) when I sound it out doesn't seem to read SHTFCK

                                          direzza tires. 

                                          Why would my track car have SHTFCK for license plate when I have 1 M0R LAP on it? 

                                          This is the E30 thread, not the 135 thread. quit vapin'
