I plan to redrill and run these in original specs. Backs shaved and fronts rolled, anybody know how they'll fit? Will they tuck in pretty good? Most like I'll be going with 215/35 front and 235/35 rear on tires.
I dont mind the tuck look, but if that doesnt work out then I'll just try to get it more flush, dont wanna get adapters or pull my fenders yet.

It will fit relatively flush in the rear if you dont run much camber, front will as well unless you run higher camber. I would probably go with the larger tires as the wheels when re-drilled arent super aggressive.

Those that have fitted these wheels, do you think there will be any rubbing issues (on unmodded fenders) if running a fat tire setup (245/40/19 front and 275/35/19 rear), lowered to about 1/2" - 1" fender gap and on factory alignment specs? This would be on re-drilled wheels, no spacer. I don't want to be cambered or run stretched tires.
Also, anyone know if these will clear LS400 BBK? Based on spoke design, doesn't look like caliper clearance will be an issue.

Yo I am so inspired right now, its not even fair! Your cars are so legit. Thank you guys for posting process and pics of your set up. Cruisinvip and Tn96dc, your set up shows that these wheels look fly even though the car isn't fully dropped, which is how I'd have to have mine on these horrible PA roads. But Sc300jz... bro... looking at those last two pictures you posted, I think I cried a little. your set up is sick!

Anyone know if these center caps will fit? 68mm seems to be a common size for bmw wheels.

Would be a good option for those not wanting to run the bmw emblems.
