    Since my car has been retired and is now a personal track car I'm running 15x7 kosei K-1's 38mm
    offset I've cut the flanges on my front fenders and shortened and rolled the rears, I've test fit a set of k-1's for BMW 2002 same bolt pattern 25mm offset, rears fit but your limited to how nuch you lower your ride height , a 30-32mm offset on a 7" rim would fit the best but other than 3-piece wheels that offset id ard to find.

    ps. and 15x7 -ET38mm with a 225/40/15 hoosier is extremely tight on the clearance to the strut,(running coil-overs) clearanced upper strut towers allow the camber plates to be adjusted with more angle to clear this combo.

    I have been off the site for a while. Our little boy is growing up so fast that I am trying to spend more time with him before he is off to college!(He just turned 9 mo's last week.)

    Thanks again for the great info Burban. I'll keep that in mind.

    Also, James, unless there is a racing secret that you are not wanting to divulge to me, I would appreciate any photos. The more I see the better I can finalize my plans. Since I will probably be involving a race shop to help out with any technical details, a photo will explain what I am not technically knowledgable/capable of expressing.

    Thanks again to all who have read and posted. I am soon taking the chassis to the shop for blasting and welding the cage in. Thanks Ken for the great Autopower cage at a bargain!

    I am starting a new thread regarding "home made" paint jobs. Please feel free to chime in with any experiences that you all might have.

    Cheers,
    Jack
