    haha don't worry man...the first thing that's happening when I sell them is the WALD kit to finally get painted and installed. Next will be C32 extravaganza

    both.. the wheel with the car, i'm sooo curious how it looks .w202 bippu style on stretch tyres..

    even if wheel can't go into the fender, u can always put the ride height higher, i meant tyre tuck in around 1 finger, and wallaa it's also a bippu looks.

    If you want bippu, the WALD kit will be on soon ...I have the test fit pic on my phone. As far as raising the height goes, my car tucks rim, and I have to live with it

    DAMNNN NICEEE....

    slammed to the ground.

    do u hv any pic with the brabus rims on? linea is nice but not enough wide.

    with this set up, ur wheel should have lots of camber, then u said u only get 6 degrees, hmm it shouldn't be like that.
    maybe the brabus is too wide.

    the wald kit that u have, can u fit the chrome line like the OEM bumper?

    well the Brabus wheel would have been a 19 * 9.5 et 25 (with 25mm spacer) against a 19 * 8.5 et 40 on the Linea...I have the pic in my phone...I'll upload it later today. It was poking out A LOT. The fender was stretching when I tried to lower it, so I was NOT going to risk it.

    yeah, just the inner tire would wear completely after 500 miles

    because since the lineas aren't hubcentric, I am worried about shimmys.

    you can get spacers that are hubcentric to the car, AND that will make the rims hubcentric to the spacer.

    You mean custom made spacers? The car is made for either 5 * 114.3 or 5 * 112, and it has a large bore (probably 72mm for some of the Japanese cars).

    what i mean is you can get a spacer that will fit right onto the hub of your car, and have the correct bore size for your wheel.

    yeah, I think I'll start playing around with it once I start getting bored again, lol.
