I will probably need to get spacers for the front so that they look as aggressive/flush as the rears...may look to the oars for some help on spacer size. The fronts are 8.5ET35 and I was thinking maybe a 5mm? This is how they looked on the car in their original color from when I first picked them up...

The front could use with a 5mm or 10mm spacer to sit nice and look good with the rear.
Pm me if you need any prices or are ready to purchase. I will be more then happy to get you a set of spacers shipped out ASAP |

Thanks, project. I'll be doing an alignment to max out the camber next week. Then once they get fitted I will be determining spacer size. Out of curiosity, why say 5 or 10 but not 8? Just product lineup or some other reason like Hub depth?

A little update for you folks (pardon the crapberry pic)
They aren't 100% finished yet, still some buffing, etc. To do prior to tire mounting. All should be in my hands and hopefully on my car in time for the next cars & coffee |

So I just picked them up. I'm pretty obsessive, but I'm still quite impressed by the overall work. The attention to detail makes up for the few minor blemishes. They painted the valve stems and two sets of caps (in case I lose some) to match the wheels, and even made an extra trip to the paint booth to paint the wheel weights to match during the balancing process...pricey, but good work.
Now for the mounting . It's a shame the weather is going to be crap which will probably prevent a good picture day.

Ok, so I'm thinking about bringing these back to DBK before next summer.
This is what the car looks like these days... http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=862350 Any thoughts? I'm feeling like I want a change of theme, not sure why though.
