Why don't you just use your 17's?

I want to be rid of the spacers. The fronts scrubs on my driveway on full lock.. and rears could be 1-2" wider

Then Ill raise the car a lil. and slightly higher profile tyres.

Should have offered me some money for my wheels when I sold my car man... perfect ET20 17x7's... MADE for the E30.

The guy I sold it to wouldn't have known any different, could have swapped wheels...but sorry to tease you.

Still, you can use your 17's just once at the drags... and the 14's would make your ass scrub harder anyway. I still have a full set of 14x6's... two good Pirelli P6000's as well.

wanna sell em?
I had stocker 14's on last run. 195x60x14's with low tread left too. So if you wanna offload a set of stockers - PM me. I enquired today about having stockers widened - 145 for widening, and 175 for 14 to 15" inc widening. (widening goes from 6" to 8")

Yep still running it, the car was smashed, and Im building the new e30 (with the old e30's running gear) is almost up and running. wiring and exhaust are the two main things.

Ive been busy, and havent done anything for a while - but this is where Ive documented it.

I didnt decompress it. as far as I know its got a stock gasket on it. and pistons from somewhere else bringing the compression down slightly.

m10's can handle a beating. I wouldnt crack the engine til its time to spend a bucket load on it. Be sure fuel and spark is setup correctly. Ive not had any engine (edit: major) problems, and its been turbo chanrged for about 70k km's now. always over 10psi.
